Born in London to his renowned artist mother Elisabeth Frink RA and a French architect father, Michel Jammet, Lin grew up surrounded by art and spent some of his early childhood in France. His parents were close friends with Julian Trevelyan and Mary Fedden, and Lin went on to study printmaking with Trevelyan in the 1970s. In the 80s and 90s he collaborated with Curwen Chilford on a series of lithographs which held very true to his drawings and then with Gresham studios in the 1990s where he turned his attention to screenprinting and etching. A very talented draughtsman which comes across in his printmaking, Lin had the ability to capture incredible movement and tone in his figures and animal prints.
