Gerry discovered and fell in love with printmaking after visiting an exhibition of relief prints in 2012. She works solely in linocut enjoying the mindfullness of mark-making and rigorous process of printmaking, most often using the reduction technique to produce multi-layered multi-coloured prints. Her work typically depicts her fondness for British wildlife; birds, flowers, countryside and above all, colour.
She is a member of Oxford Art Society. Gerry teaches Linocut workshops at her home studio in South Oxfordshire. She also sells online in the UK and internationally.
Her linocut print “Clarinet: lines and spaces” is currently on show at the Royal Academy Summer Exhibition.

"Thoroughly enjoyed this course! It was well planned with lots of useful information (both in advance of the course and during) and examples to help us understand the materials, equipment and process but also plenty of opportunities to work at our own pace and level, with as much support as we wanted. Gerry was very accommodating, a great tutor and the studio was beautifully equipped. I had a fun, relaxing afternoon and managed to achieve much more than I had expected, I can’t wait to try Lino printing again!"
