Martin Truefitt-Baker: Hares in Meadow Cranesbill (Foiled Journal)

Martin Truefitt-Baker: Hares in Meadow Cranesbill (Foiled Journal) is a Flame Tree Notebook. Beautiful and luxurious, the journals combine high-quality production with magnificent art. Perfect as a gift and an essential personal choice for writers, notetakers, travellers, students, poets, and diarists. The journals feature a wide range of well-known and modern artists, with new artworks published throughout the year.

Beautifully designed, the highly crafted covers are printed on foil paper, embossed, then foil stamped. These are complemented by luxury binding and rose red end-papers. The covers are created by our artists and designers who spend many hours transforming original artwork into gorgeous 3D masterpieces that feel good in the hand and look wonderful on a desk or table.

Practical and easy to use, Flame Tree Notebooks come with several practical features, including a pocket at the back for scraps and receipts, and two ribbon markers to help keep track of more than just a to-do list. The robust ivory text paper is printed with lines, and the magnetic side flap keeps everything neat and tidy when you need to collect other notes or scraps of paper.

The artist, Martin Truefitt-Baker, is a fine art printmaker and painter living in the Brecon Beacons National Park, South Wales, UK. His linocuts use a reduction method, printing from a single piece of lino. The prints depict animals he has seen on his walks through the local landscape, mostly within just a couple of miles of his home. Martin always tries to capture some of the magic in the way the animal moves and lives within its environment. The beautiful Usk valley, rough mountainsides, twisted trees, wildflowers, and busy insects fill the backgrounds of his prints.

The final word, as William Morris said, "Have nothing in your houses that you do not know to be useful, or believe to be beautiful."
