Blog

Welcome

My name is Alexandra Buckle. I have been a full time professional printmaker and artist since 2012, and I've had an interest in art, design and craft my whole life. I was previously based near Buckingham and I am now living in Bicester, Oxfordshire, where I have set up my own home printmaking studio.
I'm inspired by countryside walks and excited by light, shadow and colour. I enjoy capturing my favourite scenery as hand printed reduction linocuts. This relief printing technique involves cutting and printing several layers of colour from the same block of lino in order to build up an image. Reduction prints are sometimes referred to as suicide prints.

Visit the Linocut Gallery to see a selection of old and new work displayed by theme. To see my newer work and to see which prints are available to purchase, visit Linocuts for Sale, 

I teach private lino printing classes and workshops at my home studio in Bicester, visit Lino Printing Classes for more information.

Trying out some Video!

I decided to film every stage of my latest large linocut Daisy Delights. I edited it all together into a 7 minute video. You can see it in my 50 Prints 2017 blog post

New Year, New Goal

I have decided to set myself the crazy goal of creating 50 prints in 2017 ! You can follow my progress and ramblings in the blog post in the column to the right.
I shall also be posting each print on my facebook page, so follow me to keep up! You can click the facebook like button above and to the right.
I will also put them in Instagram (I'm alexandra.bucke) and Twitter @AlexandraBuckle
I was really happy with the prints I completed last year but a little disappointed I didn't find time to create more. I am determined that this year will be different!

I offer lino printing sessions at my studio in Bicester, Oxfordshire. These art classes are suitable for any level and are a great opportunity to learn or experiment with linocuts. I can accommodate you and a friend in my studio, and classes for larger groups can be arranged at alternative venues. Gift vouchers are also available.
