She has spent much of her artistic life as a painter and has only been making prints for the last two years.  I asked her some questions about this transition and about her practice.<\/h5>\n<p>Julie: Could you give us a mini bio?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Liz: I was born in London, studied Mathematics (because it was sensible) at St Andrews University, met my husband there and together we set off overseas, living and working in Melbourne, Barcelona, Casablanca, Budapest and Helsinki before returning to England to raise our family. I then started studying Fine Art and took another degree at Bucks University. I have been practising and exhibiting as an artist for over twenty years now.<\/strong><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_149825\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-149825\" style=\"width: 214px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/1.Liz-Whiteman-Smith.jpg\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/1.Liz-Whiteman-Smith-214x300.jpg\" alt=\"Liz Whiteman Smith\" width=\"214\" height=\"300\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-149825\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/1.Liz-Whiteman-Smith-214x300.jpg 214w, https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/1.Liz-Whiteman-Smith-732x1024.jpg 732w, https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/1.Liz-Whiteman-Smith-620x867.jpg 620w, https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/1.Liz-Whiteman-Smith-940x1315.jpg 940w, https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/1.Liz-Whiteman-Smith.jpg 1364w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 214px) 100vw, 214px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-149825\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Liz Whiteman Smith<\/figcaption><\/figure>\nJulie: You used to paint, but now you mostly make prints. When did you start printmaking and why the change?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Liz: I used to paint faces and buildings and was told many times that my style was very graphic and someone suggested that I tried printmaking. I tried screen printing and found that it suits my style and love of precision (that\u2019s probably the Mathematician in me coming out!). I have been screen printing now for two years and enjoy both the process and the results, which is not to say that I don\u2019t find it frustrating and difficult at times but I think any artist would say the same about their practice.<\/strong><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_149826\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-149826\" style=\"width: 620px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/2a-Melvin-21-Virgo-60.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/2a-Melvin-21-Virgo-60-726x1024.jpg\" alt=\" Liz Whiteman Smith\" width=\"620\" height=\"874\" class=\"size-large wp-image-149826\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/2a-Melvin-21-Virgo-60-726x1024.jpg 726w, https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/2a-Melvin-21-Virgo-60-213x300.jpg 213w, https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/2a-Melvin-21-Virgo-60-620x875.jpg 620w, https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/2a-Melvin-21-Virgo-60-940x1327.jpg 940w, https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/2a-Melvin-21-Virgo-60.jpg 2004w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 620px) 100vw, 620px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-149826\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">&#8220;Melvin, 21, Virgo, 6&#8217;0&#8221;<br \/>Oil painting on canvas<br \/>by Liz Whiteman Smith<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Julie: Where do you make your prints and what is your process?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Liz: I am a member of <a href=\"http:\/\/printclublondon.com\/artist\/liz-whiteman-smith\/\" target=\"_blank\">Print Club London<\/a> in Dalston and go up there three days a week to print.

These then become positives and are exposed onto silk screens. Each layer is then printed in turn and carefully registered with the previous layer to make the image line up. My prints are usually between 5 and 7 layers and it takes time and patience to produce some good prints.<\/strong><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_149828\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-149828\" style=\"width: 575px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/3b.-Liz-working-at-Print-Club.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/3b.-Liz-working-at-Print-Club-575x1024.jpg\" alt=\"Liz Whiteman Smith\" width=\"575\" height=\"1024\" class=\"size-large wp-image-149828\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/3b.-Liz-working-at-Print-Club-575x1024.jpg 575w, https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/3b.-Liz-working-at-Print-Club-169x300.jpg 169w, https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/3b.-Liz-working-at-Print-Club-620x1104.jpg 620w, https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/3b.-Liz-working-at-Print-Club-940x1673.jpg 940w, https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/3b.-Liz-working-at-Print-Club.jpg 1456w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 575px) 100vw, 575px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-149828\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Liz Whiteman Smith working at Print Club London<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Julie: Tell us about where your ideas come from, why you make art.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Liz: It depends, some of my ideas come from wandering around London taking photographs of buildings and turning these into prints, others come from what I\u2019m reading or watching at the moment; others simply from my imagination or something that has happened in the day.<br \/>\nI am also a member of <a href=\"http:\/\/www.espaciogallery.com\" target=\"_blank\">Espacio Gallery<\/a> in Shoreditch and belong to a group who, each year, work on an idea and produce a group show together on one particular theme.<\/strong><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_149901\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-149901\" style=\"width: 620px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/Liz-Whiteman-Smith-Labour-and-Wait-Large-print.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/Liz-Whiteman-Smith-Labour-and-Wait-Large-print-763x1024.jpg\" alt=\"Liz Whiteman Smith\" width=\"620\" height=\"832\" class=\"size-large wp-image-149901\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/Liz-Whiteman-Smith-Labour-and-Wait-Large-print-763x1024.jpg 763w, https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/Liz-Whiteman-Smith-Labour-and-Wait-Large-print-224x300.jpg 224w, https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/Liz-Whiteman-Smith-Labour-and-Wait-Large-print-620x832.jpg 620w, https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/Liz-Whiteman-Smith-Labour-and-Wait-Large-print-940x1261.jpg 940w, https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/Liz-Whiteman-Smith-Labour-and-Wait-Large-print-560x750.jpg 560w, https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/Liz-Whiteman-Smith-Labour-and-Wait-Large-print.jpg 1000w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 620px) 100vw, 620px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-149901\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Labour and Wait<br \/>large screenprint<br \/>by Liz Whiteman Smith<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Julie: How many hours do you spend each week making art?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Liz: It\u2019s a full time occupation for me; I start at 8am either preparing my artwork and then going to Print Club and printing for 4 hours or I will be at home drawing and preparing artwork for my next print.
