About your tutor:
Laurinda is a cyanotype artist working from her home studio in rural Wiltshire. Laurinda first discovered alternative photographic processes while studying for a master’s degree in History of Art in 1995. She explored many art forms over the years, but returned to the cyanotype process in 2013 as a way of recording and preserving the beauty of her rural surroundings in intricate detail.
Working in both traditional and wet processes, Laurinda also experiments with mixed media colour, wet in wet, to capture moments of time and place - a misty day, a summer breeze, or the first light of dawn.
Laurinda is represented by galleries in Wiltshire and North Yorkshire, and has exhibited locally in the Cotswolds and South West England.
