Jeremy Speck

I am a fine art printmaker specialising in linocut and screenprints. I enjoy the restrictions that these two disciplines impose on you as an artist: having to render images in a limited number of layers in flat colour. 

I am heavily influenced by natural forms and 20th century British art, particularly the St. Ives school, as well as mid-century design. 

My work varies from the figurative to the abstract, mainly because the approaches to the two forms are so different, and after one I like to take a break by embarking on the other! However, what ultimately unites all my work is the attempt to attain balance through shape, colour and texture. 

The majority of my work is produced at Double Elephant Print Workshop (DEPW) in Exeter, where I am a Tutor / Director.
