Hello, I'm Joanna Pass, a printmaker and illustrator based in Lincolnshire.

Inspired by my own experiences with wildlife and nature, I create illustrative handmade prints that are also influenced by my love for pattern, shape and design.  Working with relief and intaglio printmaking techniques, I spend time observing and taking photographs before creating my prints back in my studio.  Intuitively, I make artwork with a playful character.

All my prints are original, not digital reproductions or giclee prints.  Every print design starts with a sketch before being 'painted', carved or 'etched 'into a plate.  Each one has been inked and skillfully printed either by hand (using a glass baren and a wooden spoon) or passed through my etching press. 

I really enjoy working on community art projects. I've created an illuminated window for the Sir Joseph Banks Centre, designed the wooden horses for the Horncastle Horse Fair celebrations and painted wooden horses for the Horse Fair Trails. I've delivered successful workshops for East Mercia Rivers Trust, Spilsby Sessions House, Horncastle Heritage and History Society, Busy Fingers and Horncastle Art Group.
