Angie studied BA (Hons) Fine Art Printmaking at Central St. Martins College of Art and Design, followed by a year's postgraduate printmaking at Camberwell School of Arts and Crafts. After working in London as an illustrator she studied horticulture, before moving to Norfolk, a move which prompted a return to printmaking. Angie now lives and works in Scotland.

Inspired by both the clifftops and saltmarshes of the North Norfolk coast and the Scottish Highlands, Angie depicts these contrasting environments and their native flora in wood engraving, linocut, silkscreen, lithograph, and collage. These landscapes are often glimpsed through intricately detailed plant forms. Attracted to the relationships between plant communities on an intimate level, even the fine lines of insect eggs on a flower bud are observed in her work. Still lifes often incorporate seedpods, grasses, flints and dried seaweed collected on walking and sketching trips.

Angie is a member of the Royal Society of Painter-Printmakers, the Royal Watercolour Society, the Society of Wood Engravers and the Art Workers' Guild. As well as designing fabrics and stationery for St Jude's, which she runs with husband Simon, Angie has completed commissions for Penguin, Faber, Conran Octopus, Merrell and Picador and designed fabrics for Liberty.
