Mark Hearld

Painter/printmaker Mark Hearld designs a range of fabrics and wallpapers for St. Jude's - all produced in the UK.

Born in 1974, Mark studied illustration at Glasgow College of Art and then completed an MA in Natural History Illustration at the Royal College of Art.

Taking his inspiration from the flora and fauna of the British countryside, Mark Hearld works across a number of mediums, producing limited edition lithographic and linocut prints, unique paintings, collages and hand-painted ceramics. We share Mark’s admiration for artist/designers such as Edward Bawden, Peggy Angus and John Piper – artists well regarded for their forays into the world of commercial design.

In 2022, we published a book dedicated to Mark's work, Raucous Invention - The Joy of Making. Find out more over at our online gallery.
