Rebecca Homfray - Printmaker Wexford based artist/printmaker

Instagram: rebecca_homfray I have no formal training and am largely self taught.

I have been living and working in Ireland for over twenty years, but I grew up in the Kentish countryside in the south east corner of England, surrounded by the extraordinarily rich and diverse flora and fauna of unimproved chalk pastureland. I was inspired as a child to try and capture some of these glories on paper, something I still do many years later in different places and in different ways.

Printmaking is a relatively new adventure for me and I find that the huge range of possibilities and uncertainty of outcome make it an exciting medium with which to explore my subject matter. Both as a painter and as a printmaker I take inspiration from the natural world. I am a member of the Leinster Printmaking Studio and have exhibited throughout the country and abroad.

My corner in the Wexford Art Centre Christmas Art and Craft Fair. I’m here for the day looking after sales and surrounded by the beautiful work of the other makers who are sharing the space. Definitely the right place to visit if you are looking for a special gift.
We are here until Saturday so do pop in and have a browse.
