Artwork description:

A hand carved, hand printed linocut of a fossil ammonite.

Printed on archival acid-free paper using four layers of brown ink, printed at varying intensities to build an impression of depth.

Each of these prints is hand made and there'll be some minor variation. I cut from a single block of lino, printing the lightest colour first, then cutting into the same block for the next colour and so on until the final darkest colour. This means that a cut can never be repeated, making the small editions of prints collectable.

This print was made in an edition of 20.

Materials used:

Acid free archival paper, linseed ink
