Ieuan Edwards

Ieuan is a linocut printmaker and illustrator based in Broadstairs.

His chief inspiration for making prints initially was his family story. His maternal grandfather was a coal miner in the Rhondda in South Wales. He retired from mining on ill health and moved with his family to the Kent seaside, where they’d previously holidayed. As a result, much of his work compares and contrasts the architecture of our industrial heritage with that of the fairground.

Other areas of interest include palaeontology, geology and exploration,  with a smattering of folklore and the bizarre.  

"During lockdown I made some prints of wildlife (both contemporary and prehistoric) making the most of deserted urban spaces, inspired by news clips of mountain goats munching their way along rows of front gardens in Llandudno."
