Printing Birds and Wildlife In Linocut

Michelle Hughes

This beautiful book explains how to capture the joy of nature in the versatility of linocut. From a simple idea or sketch, it guides you through the process of planning designs, carving and then successfully printing your work. Projects with detailed step-by-step instructions further demonstrate the process with one-colour and jigsaw prints, before advancing to reduction and multi-block prints. All are shown with the most endearing images that capture the enchanting characteristics of our much-loved British birds and wildlife.
