ABOUT ME
Meet the Printmaker
The story behind Tigerlino.
I’m an artist and printmaker creating handmade linocut prints filled with unusual characters and slightly odd ideas. Every print begins as a sketch before being carved and printed by hand in my studio. If you’re curious about the background behind the work and how Tigerlino came about, you can read the full story here.
