The Artists: Bea Forshall

Bea is a graduate from Falmouth Art College.  In her last year there she began dry point engraving, which has since become a passion.  She is inspired by the natural world and a concern for endangered species.  A hugely talented artist, Bea produces striking and charismatic contemporary portraits. 

From 2017-19, Bea was artist in residence with The Cambridge Conservation Initiative.  Her gorgeous book, The Book of Vanishing Species, was published by Bloomsbury in 2022.

Bea's prints are sometimes one-offs or are otherwise made in extremely small editions.  Each print is individually finished by hand, which makes each one unique.
