Guy is an experimental printmaker, exceptional draughtsman and highly talented young British artist. Working hard between his studios in London and Norfolk, Guy’s trademark experimental approach to printmaking presents an exciting mix of colour, gold-leaf and an original, contemporary take on the traditional art of etching.
Guy has created very few landscapes, the works shown here make a change from his contemporary wildlife etchings. These trees are drawn from those on the Holkham Estate in North Norfolk near to where Guy grew up. The Scots Pine was exhibited at a recent Royal Academy Summer Exhibition.
Guy has exhibited in Dubai, New York, and London and has his work is in private collections including Los Angeles, San Francisco, New York, Singapore and Hong Kong. Guy discovered his passion for print making during his time in Paris studying at the École Nationale Supérieure Des Beaux-Arts in 2010, when he became particularly fascinated with the traditional etching process. Following his graduation from Central Saint Martins School, in 2012 Guy trained as an assistant print maker under Mary Dalton and Stanley Jones at Curwen Studios, Cambridge where he had to learn at a fast clip how to master other types of print making. In both 2013 and 2014 Guy had his etchings selected to be exhibited in the Royal Academy Summer Exhibition in London.
