Artwork description:

Swooping swallows over the rape seed fields, that is summer to me, is it summer for you too?

WHAT IS A LINOCUT?: A handprinted linocut reduction print, reduction means that as I am printing the very short edition of only 12 prints , I cut away areas to keep the color I just printed. This is quite a complicated process, great fun, as you don't really know how the print is going to turn out until the end, it is a technique I enjoy very much, as it feels quite like you are sculpting with your linocut knife and painting with your roller of ink. Experience has taught me incredibly much about this way of printing, managing the ink, using pressure, etc etc, given the choice this is my favorite way of printmaking!

All my lino prints are printed by me, printmaking is my big love!
I have used happy vibrant colors for this print, printed with water based inks.

SIZE: "Summer" is printed on a lovely heavy weight piece of printmaking paper,
the image measures 17" x 14" (43cm x 35cm )
and paper measures 22,5" x 17". (57 cm x 43 cm)

EDITION: I have signed, titled and numbered the print.
It is one of 12 prints.
SHIPPING: I'll mail it to you, from my studio in Denmark, packed with great care, see my over 970 reviews.
It comes with a flier explaining what a lino reduction is, see thumbnail.
