Liz Whiteman Smith

I am a screen printer and artist, currently living in London. I love to travel around the world, exploring unusual places and cultures. I create series of multi-layered screen prints, working from my own photographs and drawings.

My recent travels to Japan have inspired this series of prints. I was drawn to the tranquility of the temples and the carefully curated landscapes surrounding them. Using numerous layers of screen printing, I have built up a painterly image to convey the stillness and beauty. Gold leaf has then been applied to the prints, as it is applied to the temples themselves, to purify and protect them from negativity.

An elected member of the Southbank Printmakers Gallery. I also organise North London Printmakers and curate several stands at the Affordable Art Fair. I have work in the Victoria and Albert museum archives and have collectors around the world. My edition of 100 prints sold out in 3 days at the Royal Academy Summer Exhibition in 2024.

I graduated from Bucks New University with a BA (Hons.) in Fine Art, 2:1 in 2008.
