My name is Margot, I am a Southampton-based fine art printmaker, working from my studio at home in what was my children’s playroom. I work on a hawthorn press which gives me the flexibility to work with both intaglio and relief printmaking.
My inspiration comes from the colour and pattern found in the natural world.
Images for my prints are from watercolour sketches and photographs taken in my garden, walks with my dog Hector or snorkelling.
All my prints are hand printed and each piece is an original artwork created by me.
I make mostly Lino and Etching prints, depending on the image I am creating.
Each of my prints are part of a limited edition, every print has its own number within the edition.
All my prints come mounted and wrapped in cellophane for protection. I don’t always print an edition in one go, so occasionally I will need to print to order. This usually takes about a week.
Due to the hand-made nature of my work, the numbers in a print edition may vary slightly in colouring.
