A Lego-printed Feathursday

Here are some Lego-printed birds from the second edition of Print & Play The Art of LEGO Letterpress by printmaker and educator Martijn van der Blom (b. 1973) and visual artist Roy Scholten, published in Dutch and English in Hilversum, Netherlands at tacit.studio in a limited edition 250 copies in 2024. The images are part of Scholten's 50 Birds series. They write:

Since 2013 Martijn van der Blom and Roy Scholten have been working with LEGO bricks as printmaking material in Grafisch Atelier Hilversum (a printmaking studio in Hilversum, The Netherlands). They use it to build stamps that can be printed on the presses of the printmaking studio. That this toy material can be used in design and build the most surprising images has been an endless source of fun for the last ten years. . . . Martijn and Roy have been using these techniques to make their own art. While doing so, they inspired and motivated each other to continuously elevate the expressiveness and technique of LEGO Letterpress. After hundreds if not thousands of prints the time had come to compile and share the results of these first ten years of printing and playing.

The birds from top to bottom are:

Eurasian Chaffinch (Fringilla coelebs)

Barn Swallow (Hirundo rustica)

House Sparrow (Passer domesticus)

Eurasian Blue Tit (Cyanistes caeruleus)

Eurasian Collared Dove (Streptopelia decaocto)

Goldcrest (Regulus regulus)

Blue-headed wagtail (Motacilla flava flava), subspecies of the Western Yellow Wagtail

Eurasian Magpie (Pica pica)
