Mark Hearld
About the artist
Mark Hearld was born in 1974. He studied illustration at Glasgow School of Art followed by an MA in Natural History Illustration at the Royal College of Art. His work is based on his observations of the natural world, influenced by mid twentieth century Neo-Romanticism and the gaiety of 1930s Modernism. He is inspired by British artists such as Eric Ravilious, John Piper and Edward Bawden.
Mark has recently had two illustrated books published.
'A First Book of Nature' by Walker Books in May 2012.
'Mark Hearld's Work Book' by Merrell in November 2012
