About

Based in the North East of England Susan Noble is a linocut printmaker whose work is rooted in the natural world, particularly the windswept coastline. Drawing inspiration from her surroundings, Susan creates limited editions with relatively short runs from her home studio in Saltburn-by-the-Sea.

Susan’s images are developed from sketchbook drawings which are then transferred to iPad for further experimentation prior to moving back to the more traditional medium of lino.  Susan's most recent work has included exploring the softening effects of overlaying thin Japanese printing papers and simplifying her mark making.

Susan has exhibited in the Royal Society of Marine Artists Open Exhibition at the Mall Galleries in London, the Ferens Open Exhibition in Hull, New Light Prize Exhibition 'Salon de Refuses', Great Print Exhibitions at the Rheged Centre in Penrith and has work in Yorkshire Galleries - the Staithes Gallery and the 'Inspired By' Gallery at Danby.
