Who is Algwyne?

---

I use my passion for nature in combination with my skills as an illustrator. The colours of nature fascinate me and I translate these onto my work. Artists such as Matisse and Picasso has inspired me with their use of Bright Colours.

French Culture has had a big impact on my work due to le Belle Epoque. Artists such as Toulouse Lautrec and his use of colours made me use a limited colour palette. Using this limited colour palette meant that I was able to create colours which are bright and engaging which I want to portray in my work.

I fell in love with the Risograph Printer when Darren Page from  foursandeights introduced it to my illustration class at my second year of University. Ever since then I have been trying to perfect and imperfect my work to showcase the versatility of this printing method. Having Rachel Davey as a tutor allowed me to see work from other Risograph Artists and see the potential of it all.
