Artwork description:

I make my Linocut Prints by hand in my studio in York. I carve the image out of Lino and then roll ink onto this. I print on acid free, 220gsm Windsor and Newton paper using oil-based inks using my etching press. I have finish the print by hand-colouring using a water based medium.
I often base my images on things I see when out on my walks in the Yorkshire countryside or working on my allotment. I find plants and wildlife very inspiring. This particular print was inspired by a view of Sunflowers growing in a field in Tuscany. This print is one out of a limited edition of 50. Each print is numbered and signed. The colour of the prints can vary slightly as they are hand made so they are all unique! These works represent an affordable way to collect handmade, limited edition art.
Please note the actual image size is 30 X 20 cm but the paper size is larger as there is a white border of approximately 5 cm around each side of the image to enable you to frame the image as you wish.
All prints are wrapped in cellophane and are shipped in a sturdy envelope stiffened with card.
