Design for Faber Nature Poets, Faber & Faber
I commissioned cover illustrations and printed endpapers from the following printmakers:

Melvyn Evans (Hardy)
Andy Lovell (Clare)
Ed Kluz (Coleridge)
Angela Harding (Keats)
Neil Bousfield (Thomas)
Glenn Tomkinson (Wordsworth).

Also shown: three of 6 endpapers, by Kluz, Evans and Bousfield.

I briefed the printmakers to work within a limited colour palette to produce bespoke prints for the series. Each had to include one manmade object and a key element to be picked out in bright red.

Series style after the Faber 80th Poetry Series by Miriam Rosenbloom.
