Zoe is a Cambridge-based printmaker and illustrator who has been working with Lino Printing for many years. Trained as a stone letter carver, Lino was a natural progression into exploring another medium. Zoe blends her training in letter carving and drawing skills into a nature and pattern design-inspired lino printing practice.
Inspired by the natural world, unique patterns and storytelling, Zoe most enjoys the graphic quality of lino print and its versatility.
Zoe runs other workshops in Cambridge, for David Parr House and has exhibited at The Atelier by the Sea in Brighton and the Lettering Arts Trust in Snape Malting, Suffolk.
