Canalside Kingfisher - Original Linicut

Original Linocut prints of British Birds.
Meticulous wildlife observation based on field sketches by this highly-regarded SWLA printmaker

Richard is a wildlife artist / printmaker living on the Leicestershire / Northamptonshire border.

All his prints are based on field sketches and first hand observation. He is a member of the Society of Wildlife Artists (SWLA) and is work has been exhibited nationally and locally, including the ' Natural Eye' exhibition at the Mall Galleries in London.

The RSPB have used his designs for Christmas cards and Mascot Media have included his work in several publications.

"All my design inspiration stems from many, many hours of (happy) field sketching and direct observation. These scribbles are either lifted straight from the sketchbook or form the starting point for creating a pleasing composition. The prints are produced on a small Tofko press ...They are printed in oil based ink and then tinted with watercolour." - Richard Jarvis
