Biography

Jack Fawdry Tatham's artwork revolves around the kinship between humans and the natural world, combining representational drawings from life with his imagination and memories of being in nature. The main element of Jack's practice is printmaking, predominantly intaglio on copper plates, and in recent years he has embarked on drawing onto copper plates outdoors directly from the landscape in a bid to capture the magic and aura of a place. He also gathers inspirational material relating to the natural world such as myth, folk tales and scientific discoveries which can also act as starting points for prints.
