Masha Tiplady is an Edinburgh-based linocut artist and wood engraver. She creates intricate prints, where the tonal values and textures are achieved by experimenting with various mark-making, often pushing the limits of linocut as a medium in order to achieve the tiniest of detail.  

Masha works from a small home studio and hand-prints all of her linocuts and engravings one by one, using an antique 1868 Albion press. Nature and plants frequently feature in Masha’s work. Other recurring subjects are mythology, world folklore and story-telling.

Masha is an elected member of The Society of Wood Engravers. She’s also an active member of Edinburgh Printmakers studios, where she continues to learn and develop various printmaking techniques, such as intaglio and lithography.
