"Ballindalloch blackbird" a linocut by Mark Hearld. I enjoy Mark's work as it seems simple but delicate. The blackbird shows characteristics, as the blackbird is collecting things to create its nest. The foreground showing the leaves and seeds gives the image a kind of frame that draws your eye straight to the bird. I like the way that he uses different types of lines of cuts thick, thin, wavey, straight. Also the limit pallete of colurs brings a sense of light into the image. |

| "Tate" by Mark Hearld. This image is created by linocutting using different marks to create the texture on the birds. It is all done sepratly and then collaged together. This is very effective as you can compose your image however you like, so not to worry if you mess up one small bit as you can just do it again. |

| "Dodo with a Yoyo" by Nick Morley. I love the colours used in this image, as it gives the dodo a slight personality. It is a funny image, simple but makes you laugh. |

| An image taken from "the lion and the ox and the boar and the bear" by Nick Morley. I enjoy this book as it combines many animals within and as you turn the pages you create different animals, like in the image shows a hyneina body and a crocodile face. This was created by lino cut. He uses different techinques to creat the shades and texture of the animals.http://linocutboy.com/prints/ |
