Spurred on by the global climate crisis, printmaker Jane Spink feels increasingly motivated to make art that will help raise awareness and re-connect people to the nature that we all share the planet with. And having worked as a freelance textile and graphic designer for nearly 20 years, followed by 16 years teaching art in schools, she's well placed to bring this new linocut 'how to' guide into the world. Based on artwork created under the moniker Inky Dog Studio, 'Nature Imprinted' is a great resource for anyone looking to get into the craft of linocut. -- John Coe, Editor of Pressing Matters Magazine
