Sophie Davis
Bio
Sophie uses the art of printmaking to capture the beauty and fragility of the landscape. Techniques such as collagraph, monotype and drypoint etching are explored and often combined together to produce unique multilayered artworks evoking the changing moods and atmosphere of the landscape.
Dramatic coastal areas offer huge inspiration for her work, but also the gentler hills around Bath, Somerset and Wiltshire provide an ever changing landscape. Rich colours, rolling hills, atmospheric mists and woodland areas all provide inspiration for new prints.
The raw beauty of printing directly from nature, using plants, seed heads and grasses is another passion, elements of which appear frequently in her prints.
Sophie also creates wonderful hand bound books using original printmaking artwork for the covers and regularly takes part in Batheaston Art Trail, Bath Contemporary Artists Fair and other events in Bath and surrounding area.
