Published: April 2018

Wildlife artist Robert Gillmor (1936-2022) relocated to Norfolk 20 years ago, and the county was a major source of inspiration for the hundreds of linocuts created between 1998 and 2018. It becomes clear from this book of his work that the close proximity to key birdwatching sites and bewitching locations enabled him to expand greatly his repertoire of prints, book jackets and even stamp designs.
 
Since the artist’s earlier book, Cutting Away, was published in 2006 he stepped up his linocut output, and some 160 are reproduced in the volume. The productive period saw Robert illustrate another 37 New Naturalist covers, create more than 30 prints destined for gallery sale, and produce designs for 46 Royal Mail Post & Go stamps,. The period also saw him receive the MBE for services to wildlife art.

Robert sadly died in May 2022, having suffered a series of medical setbacks that brought his artistic career to an early end. He leaves behind a legacy of wonderful art and an entire generation of wildlife artists inspired by his talent, generosity and dedication.
