Artwork description:

So here I have curated a set of 3 different individual prints for you to purchase at once. I think this selection works well together. The prints are sold unframed, but each comes in a commercially-produced mount set, consisting of a 8 x 6" (20 x 15 cm) textured off-white mount with a mitre-cut aperture, backing board and cellophane bag. So you could frame the 3 prints together, or separately, or even gift them individually. Please note that the dimensions provided below are for each individual print.

My designs generally tend to be illustrative and/or figurative, which is quite hard work, so every now and then I like to burst out of my pod and do something different. Here I had some fun with abstract designs, using some modular linocut blocks that can be printed in different combinations, using layers and even masking part of the block. The first in the 'Dissilience' series proved popular and sold out quickly!

These little linocut prints were a side-hustle, but have proved unexpectedly popular. Basically, I would use excess ink left on the slab to add layers to them, and some have been around for months, waiting for just the right colour to crop up. Consequently, it won't ever be possible to replicate them quite like this, and I won't be adding any more to the 'Dissilience' series.

These are limited-edition hand-printed originals using oil-based artists' quality printing inks on robust acid-free Clairefontaine Simili Japon paper.
