Stephen Asquith: Having studied graphics at the Epsom School of Art, Steve worked in advertising as a model maker and animator. In 2000 he was attracted to etching when he attended the Slade Summer School. Having later decided to study full time, he enrolled on a MA in Fine Art Printing at Anglia Ruskin University, Cambridge, where he experimented with impressionistic and abstract forms. Moving to Whitstable allowed him to return to representational imagery, capturing the essence of the natural world in his own characteristic style. He has exhibited in the Mall Gallery, London and in several of the Printmaker’s Council exhibitions.
