Paul Catherall is a London-based printmaker and illustrator, renowned for his clean, sharp linocuts of architectural landmarks as well as his illustrations for high profile clients.

Drawing influence from classic mid-20th century poster designers, such as Tom Eckersley and Edward Wadsworth, and inspired by the semi-abstract landscapes from Cezanne, Catherall combines an expert eye for composition and colour with consummate draughtmanship to create striking and iconic images.
The subjects of his prints include controversial London buildings (Elephant and Castle shopping centre) and celebrated landmarks (such as Battersea Power Station, Tate Modern and New York's Flatiron).

Each limited edition is created using high quality oil-based inks and acid-free paper, and produced entirely by hand, from the intial design and sketches through to carving, inking and editioning.
