Mark Hearld's Work Book (Hardcover, New edition)
Expected to ship within 9 - 17 working days

The artist Mark Hearld finds his inspiration in the flora and fauna
of the British countryside: a blue-eyed jay perched on an oak
branch; two hares enjoying the spoils of an allotment; a mute swan
standing at the frozen water's edge; and a sleek red fox prowling
the fields. Hearld admires such twentieth-century artists as Edward
Bawden, John Piper, Eric Ravilious and Enid Marx, and, like them,
he chooses to work in a range of media - paint, print, collage,
textiles and ceramics. Work Book is the first collection of
Hearld's beguiling art. The works are grouped into nature-related
themes introduced by Hearld, who narrates the story behind some of
his creations and discusses his influences. He explains his
particular love of collage, which he favours for its graphic
quality and potential for strong composition. Art historian Simon
Martin contributes an essay on Hearld's place in the English
popular-art tradition, and also meets Hearld in his museum-like
home to explore the artist's passion for collecting objects, his
working methods and his startling ability to view the wonders of
the natural world as if through a child's eyes.
