Linocuts prints are made by carving a design into traditional linoleum plates which are then inked up and printed in my two Victorian printing presses. All the areas which have been carved away will not print onto the paper, therefore leaving the paper white. Single-colour linocuts are very striking and bold. It is also possible to create multiblock prints with several overlapping plates, or reduction prints where the same plate is gradually carved away as the layers are printed.

Each print is handmade and unique. Gradient colours and coverage may vary slightly, contributing to the charm of owning an original piece of art. 

When framing, please ensure that the print does not not touch the glass.
