Titus Surveys A6 Hardback Notebook by Nick Tankard

 This lovely hardback A6-sized notebook  is produced exclusively for us in the UK. It features a print of Nick Tankard's dreamlike image of Sir Titus Salt, the founder of Salts Mill and Saltaire. 

Nick's illustrations are produced using a cross-hatch technique with a black fine line pen. Layer upon layer of small ink lines are built up to form structure and shape, whilst other areas are left untouched in order to hint at a flickering light or billowing clouds. It’s a very time consuming process. He cross-hatches in one direction, then turns the image around and adds another layer to create shade and depth, whilst also leaving elements untouched to hint at light and space. The image may turn ten to twenty times until it’s finished.

Approximate measurements of this A6 sized notebook are: length 15cm, width 11cm, depth 1.8cm. It contains approximately 96 pages of 100gsm cream lined paper and is finished with square corners and a ribbon marker.
