LIZ TOOLE - PRINTMAKER
Liz Toole is a printmaker who has a genuine love of birds.
Working and travelling in Africa has informed and inspired Liz's work, this is where she fell in love with nature, mainly birds, following her ceramics degree.
Liz uses birds to tell a story which is usually something that has happened in her life, she aims to create a positive feeling or story.
All of Liz's screenprint's and linocut's are designed and hand printed by her using specialised printmaking papers.
Colour plays a huge part in Liz's work, she has been known to test print 60 different colour combinations for a two colour screenprint, waiting for that eureka colour moment.
Some of her prints can take 7 weeks to print the edition.
Liz's love of printmaking is due to the fact she is continually learning, this keeps it exciting and fresh.
Liz also hand prints a range of greetings cards and Eco friendly notebooks.
