About Becca Thorne.

Becca is an illustrator and printmaker, originally from the Forest of Dean and currently based in the land-locked Midlands. Specialising in linocut, her work is frequently used to illustrate historical books and editorials which require a medieval or Tudor woodcut look, as well as those which want a personal, hand-rendered, retro or organic feel. Becca has a BA and MA in Illustration from Falmouth College of Arts, and tutors part-time on the Graphic Design with Illustration degree course at DeMontfort University, where she teaches book illustration.
