Valerie Burnett

Painting, collage, lino printing

While studying at Amersham School of Art in Buckinghamshire, I earned a diploma in painting and printmaking. Among others, I pursued these specialisms for a further three years while studying in London for my degree. After graduating I worked alongside a therapy department for fourteen years facilitating art workshops, developing my own practice as an artist and seeing the transformative power of creative work at play in people’s lives. I now live in Ilfracombe where I spend as much time as I can painting and drawing, inspired by North Devon’s scenic coastal cliffs and glorious country views.
