Marches Makers Festival Artist 2022
Susan Jenkins
Exhibiting at Birches Farm
Susan Stevens-Jenkins’ produces deceptively simple reduction lino-prints. Current work is inspired by the appearance of spring flowers in her garden, bright pops of colour after the muted tones of winter. One bloom may be selected and displayed on the kitchen table in a cherished pot; the curve of a petal, arc of a stem or curl of a leaf may echo the line of a treasured jug or makeshift vase. Working from sketches she streamlines shapes, heightens colour and form; there is nothing shy or retiring in her bold, joyful prints.
