Nonsense Poetry Bird Linocuts!

For the Off the Press Festival I made two linocut prints based on nonsense poems about birds - poems we had recited to us by my Dad as kids and knew by heart! 

The Cormorant poem is by Christopher Isherwood. The Pelican poem is by Dixon Lanier Merritt - facts I only found out when researching for the exhibition! 

These are photos of the prints as they are too big for my scanner - hence the slightly wonky colours.
