Many artists use lino cuts as a way to explore different media. The sharp lines can be very expressive. Book illustrators use the technique to create simple single or two colour images particularly for children's books.
Edward was a graphic artist and printmaker, known for his book illustrations and scenes of London.
This prolific artist relentlessly experimented with different media and produced many lino cuts, which suited the
Cubist approach.
Sybil worked as a welder during both world wars and learned her printmaking techniques via a correspondents course. Her dynamic lino prints often showed people at work and were influenced by
Futurism, an art movement concerned with the movement and energy of life.
