guardian front cover carved linoleum design

Mark Andrew Webber

Hey, i just compleated a self negotiated brief i did.. i just felt like coming up with a pure typographical poster for a l=kind of front cover for the guardian newspaper... i know it wouldnt be used as a front cover!.. just fun really as i'm quite obsessed with making things out of linocutting.. like the linocut animations i have done..

anyway i am wanting to send a print of this (a bit bigger then A0) poster to the guardian. I dont know if they would like it, but i want to send it, but on the website it says i think that they do not like receiving artworks.. so yea i dont think i can send it? what can i do? i dont even know if they would like it..

cheers

If they say on the website that they don't want to receive artwork, I guess sending it would be a shame of that nice print. But if you have more than one print, I guess you don't lose much by sending it anyway! :)
