I'm doing a crazy creative information project at Uni, long story... but does anybody know of any pieces of design influenced or resemble the style of William Morris? Or William Blake?

(My concept is human vs nature... another long story!)

Thanks intruder. I have googled some Morris images. Wallpaper patterns and stuff. Blakes woodcuts are nice, but I had somthin more contemporary in mind. Possibly vector work? Somthing typographic possibly...

No problem, I don't know any specific sites. We use a lot of woodcuts in our work (http://www.nakedintruder.com) here's an example;

Look up Thogdin Ripley too, we worked with his illustration on the Circulus CD artwork, (Sorry if all this isn't relevant)
