About Joanna Rodzik

I am a Polish artist living in Glasgow, Scotland. I specialise in printmaking and my favourite medium is linocut. I'm fascinated by the linocut process because it requires patience when cutting out a design in linoleum and there's something magical when you discover your print after you've applied the ink and printed it. I have been interested in art from an early age and my education focused on the creative arts. I am an MA in Art with a specialism in Graphic Arts and have completed an HND Photography. Scottish nature is a huge inspiration to me. I love travelling, taking photos, and observing nature, whether it's in my local park, in the hills, or on remote islands. My black and white linocuts are unique, peaceful but also have something mysterious in them. I create because the act of making is air to me, I could not live without it. Through art I can have contact with other people who are art lovers, my art can find its way into people's homes where it can be admired.
