Quentin Duckit creates bright and humorous illustrations using a variety of different kinds of printing. In all of them, there’s a lot of colour and humour. His good use of line works well with the kinds of printing he uses, including screen printing, linocut and wood block. We like the use of overlaying, and the witty kind of comedy, like in his illustration chronicling the stages of mankind. He tells us more about his interests and techniques.

I’m a big fan of multiple printing techniques like screen printing, linocut, and woodcut. I discovered it some years ago and it changed my way of thinking about images in my work forever. 

I like to use these mediums, but I also like to work with watercolours, acrylics, indian ink, pencils and of course Photoshop. My influences are medieval art, tarot art, English or Spanish press illustration etc …
