I am a journalist, author and editor who specialises in the visual arts, with a specific interest in printmaking.
I take on freelance projects, commissions and speaking gigs alongside my role as Contributing Arts Editor at The World of Interiors.
I am the author of The Story of Printmaking: A Global History of Art published by Yale University Press (2026). Artists on Art: How They See, Think and Create, is published by Laurence King (2022).
My newsletter Various Imprints is a monthly digest of all things art and print.
Contrary to popular belief I am not the world-famous author of The Spiderwick Chronicles.
