Tessa Asquith-Lamb

Tessa Asquith-Lamb graduated from Edinburgh College of Art with a MA (Hons) Fine Art degree in 1998, specialising in etching and painting. Since then, she has continued to work on her art mostly through the medium of etchings produced at Edinburgh Printmakers. These have been exhibited widely with highlights including a solo show at Callendar House in 2018-19 'Drawn from the Past - The Museum Mind of Tessa Asquith-Lamb' being commissioned by the V&A Dundee to create a giant paper-cut pop-up book for the opening of the new museum, regular works shown art both the RSA and SSA annual shows and many private galleries across the UK. In 2020 three of her etchings were selected to join the National collection of the City of Edinburgh. In 2023 she was commissioned by the National Trust for Scotland to create a series of silhouettes with watercolour backgrounds to illustrate the life of Sir Henry Raeburn for an exhibition at the Georgian House. She also works as an art educator for the many national museums and galleries.
