Woman reclining in foliage with her lover's face descending from above. His lips touch her lower belly; her body arches to met his embrace.
A two block wood engraving in two colours - black and blue - making up a crescent shaped image.
When I work, I love letting the shape of the wood blocks suggest an image to me and the lines in the wood usually suggested a sinuous figure or water.
Hand-printed on "Imitation Japanese paper" (a fine tissue type paper) purchased at TN Lawrence (the then specialist Intaglio suppliers in London).
I have only one version of the editioned print available: Nos. 1/5
(N.B. a couple of other artist proofs are available of the first, second and third stages which are much simpler one-colour prints. I will list these separately soon - (they are visible in the "Work in Progress" photos)
Presented in a Archival Mount / Matt to fit into an A4 (21 x 30cm) or 12 x 8 inches frame.
Wrapped in acid-free tissue and packed carefully; sent by Tracked Delivery with a Certificate of Authenticity.
