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. Workbook 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.
