Kate Hartnell is a printmaker and illustrator originally from Nottingham but now living in Devon, England.
Her warm, illustrative designs often focus on the natural world, particularly flora and fauna.
Kate is a self-taught artist who has been drawing for as long as she can remember. Her style is often cartoonish and playful but based in realism.
She often prefers the use of pencil and ink above all other mediums as it lends to the achromatic style she prefers. This is what sparked her love of relief printmaking, as the carved lino creates line work in keeping with Kate’s illustrative style.
