People and Characters/ Artist research. Thomas Shahan

I wanted to look at another Print Maker for my artist research. He is called Thomas Shahan and he does a mix of insect photography and illustration. I really like his illustrative style and colour use in his print work. He creates his illustrations by printing but I'm not sure if he uses lino or wood. He uses water colour washes to colour his work. His style reminds me of medieval art and it often features monsters, spiders and insects. Below are some examples of his work.


This illustration reminds me of medieval art

This is one of his printing blocks, it looks like wood
