Artwork description:

This print was inspired by an Italian coffee pot that I have in my kitchen. I make all of my prints by hand. First I design in my sketchbook or on my iPad, then I transfer the image onto a piece of Lino and I carve out the design. I then print onto handmade paper using my etching press. I used three colours, yellow, red and blue with a transparent mixing ink to achieve this effect. Each print is small but I tiled them to create a bigger image. All vary slightly and so are unique. The image size is 23 X 20.5 cm but there is a border of 4-5 cm around the edge to allow for framing. The paper is handmade, bought from a local supplier. This is one of a limited run of 25. It represents an affordable way to collect handmade art.
I use Royal Mail to send artwork abroad and it is first class and tracked postage. Small items are sent first class with no tracking within the UK. If I find I have overcharged for postage and packaging, I refund the difference. The print will be sent flat in waterproof packaging stiffened with thick card.
