Eleanor Havsteen-Franklin was born in Denmark, but has lived in the UK since 1994. Here she completed her BA (Fine Art with Psychology), and in 2007 an MA in Printmaking at Camberwell College of Art.The expressive drawing and mark making are a central theme of her work, together with the inter play/ relationship to colours. The etchings are usually heavily bitten which creates a tactile surface. Her printmaking practice extends into digital and 3D incorporating other media such as stitching and drawing.She has exhibited in the UK and abroad (Denmark and Japan!)
