Tom Davidson - Printmaking




Tom started printmaking in 1984, doing lino cuts. He uses a single block of lino, all hand drawn by himself, and does a reduction print starting from light to dark, printing colour on top of colour and produces the most amazing lino landscapes. He makes between 20 and 30 prints with each block.
I think Tom is the most impressive lino printmaker ive ever come across as he makes his work so realistic in some sense. It gives off a calming feeling for me, along with the enthusiasm for myself to get better at lino.
