Norman Ackroyd (born 26 March 1938) is an English artist known primarily for his aquatint work.

He lives and is based in Bermondsey, London.

Ackroyd was born on 26 March 1938 in Leeds, Yorkshire.

1957

He attended Leeds College of Art from 1957 to 1961 and the Royal College of Art, London, from 1961 to 1964, where he studied under Julian Trevelyan.

Subsequently, he lived for several years in the United States.

1980

In the 1980s Ackroyd emerged as a landscape artist.

He has been in several television programmes, including BBC documentaries in 1980, 2006, and What Do Artists Do All Day? (2013).

His prints range from tiny etchings intended to be bound into books to huge etchings.

His preferred medium for working directly on paper is watercolour, including a recent project pairing his watercolors with poems by Kevin Crossley-Holland, published under the title Moored Man.

He has also designed a number of large-scale, etched reliefs in steel or bronze commissioned for architectural projects in London, Moscow, Birmingham, and Glasgow.
