Sarah Ross-Thompson

north Route

I have spent over 25 years playing with glue, porridge oats, string and lichen to create my colourful rural, cityscape and bird inspired collagraphs.

Born in London in 1965, I grew up in Norfolk before studying English and Classics in London. On moving to Dorset in the early 1990’s I attended Bournemouth and Poole College of Art and Design. My work was selected for the National Print Exhibition held at the Mall Galleries in 1998 and I was lucky enough to be offered my first solo show in London the following year as part of the City of London Festival of Arts.

As a member of Edinburgh Printmakers since 2012 and a regular house artist across the UK, my work can be found in many galleries both in England and Scotland. In 2013, my husband and I moved from Dorset where we had spent 20 years to Lochgoilhead on the West Coast of Scotland. Quite a lifestyle change. We currently split our time between the West Coast and Edinburgh, the latter being the focus of my recent series of Cityscapes.

Over the years my work has been featured in various publications including the French Magazine, Practiques des Arts as well as Green Art: Trees, leaves and Roots, an art book published in America. I was also recently commissioned to design two book covers for Between Stone and Sky by Whitney Brownstone and Native by Patrick Laurie. I am currently working on an illustrated novel in collaboration with my youngest son.

Pre Lockdown my work allowed me to travel to Mexico and Australia, visiting Facebook Followers, where I ran demonstrations for a number of prestigious print workshops. In recent years staying more locally and undertaking the book project has allowed me to explore other themes including birds and buildings.
