Rita Smith

I was born and educated in London, and now live in Plymouth, Devon. I work with a range of techniques and approaches, including printmaking, which satisfies my love for drawing. I use traditional techniques with a contemporary approach. My original prints are produced using copper plates, which are etched with acid, and the plates are inked up and hand printed individually.

BA (hons)1st class - Camberwell School of Art, London
Post graduate - Slade School of Fine Art, London

I have held many solo exhibitions, mainly in Plymouth, and taken part in selected shows at the Royal Academy, The Mall Galleries, St Ives, Bath, Plymouth Museum - and many more.
