Nick Hayes is a freelance illustrator and author from the UK who specialises in a traditional art style that is both emotional and expressive in its content. His digital linocut print art style imitates the traditional woodblock and linocut practices, whilst allowing ease for editing. His illustrations are a popular pick for the publishing and editorial sector, as they are both conceptual and traditional, making him a great choice for editorial magazines and book covers alike.
Nick’s two highly acclaimed books, Book Of Trespass (2021) & The Trespassers Companion (2022) highlight his deep passion for the conservation of natural areas and incorporate his bold and thoughtful art style. His illustrations celebrate his love for the outdoors and environmentalism, illustrating natural spaces and sustainability. Nick’s debut novel The Book Of Trespass dives into his love of nature, with a beautiful blend of his traditional lino cut style and thoughtful words.
