Linda Farquharson

Linda Farquharson (b. 1963) is the queen of linocut! She graduated from Duncan of Jordanstone College of Art in Dundee in 1985 with a degree in Illustration and Printmaking. She now works from her studio in rural Perthshire where she prints from her superb, restored Columbian press.

Hers is a distinctive graphic style of pared down compositions and delight in pattern making, contrasting the monochrome qualities of relief printmaking with the evocative possibilities of colour. Gentle humour and a profound love of nature permeates much of her work.
