Sherrie-Leigh Jones

Sherrie-Leigh Jones is an Artist and Printmaker based in Brighton, East Sussex. She studied Fine Art Printmaking at the University of Brighton and draws inspiration from nature and Japanese prints and concepts, including the woodblock printmaking movement known as Shin-hanga, and Sansuiga - paintings that depict an idealised landscape using the forms of mountains, rivers, clouds and mist. Her works offer the viewer a sense of escapism and a reminder of the simplicity, calmness and enjoyment of being in nature, embodying the changing seasons and times of day with their ambient light and colours.

To create her prints she assembles collages using photographs taken on her travels and walks in the English countryside, combining them with painted elements. The compositions are then taken into the print studio to be exposed on screens and hand pulled as screenprints, often printed with graphite and pigments.

Jones exhibits in the UK and internationally, including the Royal Academy Summer Exhibition (2021). Work is held in the Artelium collection, Jeremy Cooper's collection and private collections in the UK, Europe, USA and Taiwan. Her work has received support and recognition from a-n The Artists Information Company and Arts Council England (2020), Woolwich Contemporary Editions (2018) and Print Futures Award (2015). She has been commissioned by Artelium Wine to create labels for their collaborative Nature Series Cuvée, 2018 Vintage with Vagabond Wines (2025), and fashion label, To Be Adored (tba), which featured on the front cover of Grazia China (2013).
