Alexis Snell is a printmaker who is well known for her darkly humorous and characterful illustrations which have been featured in everything from a cast bronze table ‘cabinet of curiosities’ commissioned by the V&A Museum, to a recent Doctor Who book for the BBC. She graduated in Fine Art Printmaking from The University of Wales Institute, Cardiff in 2003.
