About

Hello! I’m Sheps, an independent artist based in Manchester, UK. I specialise in analogue photography, publication and linocut printmaking with a huge love for hands-on working.

While my work differs across mediums, I see my practice as an emotional outlet that others can relate to. My work focuses on nostalgia, coping and how our experiences shape our lives.

If you’ve landed on this page, it’s likely because you’re interested in the Idle Hands Print Club project, which I started in August 2025! I’m one of those people who isn’t satisfied with just doing one thing, so this print club is a way to bring together my most important values:

  • Connecting with others
  • Handmade work (no AI welcome!)
  • Keeping art as accessible as possible.

With the Idle Hands Print Club, I am able to share what I love doing internationally while practicing that I don’t have to stick to just one discipline.

More information on my wider practice (photography and explorations) can be found here. Any questions, enquiries or general comments can be emailed to me at sheps@shepsart.com
