Sophie Elm is a printmaker, designer and illustrator, creating botanical and horticulturally inspired linocut prints, block printed textiles, and ephemera. Her work is driven by seasonal changes in the garden and countryside around her. Through history we find humans celebrating nature and the changing of the seasons in every different culture. Sophie feels this is important to continue to do today and her work is her personal method of doing this. She uses vibrant colours, pattern and often combines typography too; an influence from her illustrative background. Although her work is predominately hand burnished linocuts, she likes to experiment with other forms of printmaking too such as risography, as well as paper cutting and drawing… sometimes she likes to combine them all together! Sophie studied Illustration at Edinburgh College of Art and now works from her home studio in the Stroud Valleys, Gloucestershire.
