Dutch artist Roy Scholten has always loved birds as a subject for his art. In 2018, he began a project that has taken six years and a lot of LEGO blocks. He uses the blocks to make letterpress prints of birds! His goal was to design and print 50 different birds, all of them found in the Netherlands. Each letterpress is the same size, and vary in their intricacy to resemble the real bird, and each is labeled with its species. They each have between three and eight ink passes to display their different colors. Scholten made his 50th bird early this year, and all the LEGO letterpress birds are now exhibited at Grafisch Atelier Hilversum in the Netherlands until May 26. Scholten made twenty prints of each bird, so that's a thousand prints in all. You can see each bird with links at Scholten's site, and if you are a LEGO nerd, try to figure out which blocks he used for his creations. -via Metafilter
