Victoria Willmott

Victoria Willmott is a linocut printmaker and illustrator based in Bristol, originally from Lancaster. She studied MA Multidisciplinary Printmaking at the University of the West of England, Bristol, and BA Illustration at Camberwell College of Arts, London. Her linocut prints are inspired by observational drawings and personal experiences, weaving together themes of journeys, mapping, birds, cycling, and folktale narratives. Victoria journeys in and out of the city on her bicycle which fuels her creativity, as she pauses to sketch the cityscapes and birds in flight. These sketches are then transformed into colourful, bold prints using traditional linocut printing techniques.
