Eleanor R Mason’s striking monochromatic illustrations translate analogue processes into the digital world sympathetically maintaining a real and tangible humanness. She explores the expression of subjects or feelings through textural and representative marks, avoiding accurate and excessive lines, leaving the viewers eye to fill in the details.

Mason’s love of printmaking is clear, her illustrations-  in both line and subject – have a traditional, almost historical feel which comes from an enjoyment and affinity with these decidedly analogue processes.
