GRAHAM EVERNDEN

After graduating from Maidstone College of Art with a First Class degree, Graham worked as a freelance illustrator, designer and artist. His hand-made limited edition etchings are his first love and popular across Europe, America and Australia. His work has been exhibited at the Royal Academy, London, many times and his design work has won him many prestigious commissions and awards including the D & AD Gold Award, D & AD Silver Award, New York Art Directors Club Gold Award and a European Illustration Award.

He has made designs for Royal Mail, The National Trust, Duchy of Cornwall, Highgrove and The Royal Collection at St James’ Palace. Graham has also designed a very popular blue and white pattern for a range of china made by Crabtree and Evelyn. The success of this led to a collaboration with the Royal Collection to design several exclusive ranges for Buckingham Palace, Windsor Castle, The Palace of Holyrood House and the Queen’s Golden Jubilee.

Graham’s etchings are equally as popular delighting those that see them with their delicate line and naturalistic colouring. British rural scenes of villages, sunsets and flower meadows have been captured using an intricate method of scoring onto copper sheets and printing onto handmade Somerset paper. Each print can use as many as 3 different copper plates and up to 18 different colours. He is a skilled and talented artist.
