Buffy is a printmaker, paper artist and mixed media artist. Born in Portsmouth, Buffy achieved a BA Hons in Three Dimensional Design at Kingston Art College. Throughout her career as a set designer in both theatre and television, model making and sketching have played a significant part in her design process. She is inspired by what others discard and throw away, and by what is often unnoticed. This informs her art practice and is a common thread throughout her work.

 

She started etching in 2012 and fell in love with the process that etching requires. She is very interested in photography, particularly abstract detail in architecture, natural forms and textures. She looks for the obscure and the unusual angle, rather than a straightforward image, and uses these images to inspire her printmaking. She has exhibited abroad and in the United Kingdom.

 

She is a member of the Printmakers Council, Richmond Printmakers, KAOS (Kingston Artists Open Studios) and Southbank Printmakers Gallery.
