People and Characters/ Artist research. Edward Bawden




My group and I decided that we wanted to use lino printing in our group work. We decided to look at the work of Edward Bawden because his print work looks amazing. I really like the textures he uses, and his colour pallet works really well with the lino style. He manages to get quite a lot of detail into his prints, I find this difficult and want to practice more. I don’t think I will be doing a lot of the print work in our group project since somebody else is doing that. I would still like to contribute though. Below are some examples of his work.

I like the use of colour on this cat and the texture in its fur
