About

Hello! I’m Steph Renshaw a Printmaker living and working in Bristol.


I am a Bristol Based artist who uses traditional printmaking techniques such as linocut and collagraph.

I enjoy describing the colourful complexity of the natural world through illustration and printmaking, drawing on my own adventures and encounters with wildlife and being outside.

My degree was in Environmental Biology but I have always had a passion for art and all things creative. I learnt printmaking through several independent courses, eventually buying my own press.

I love to share my enthusiasm for print and the endless experimentation it offers so in 2016 I opened up my home studio, Bristol Print Room to teach. I love to help people realise their own creative potential.
