Artwork description:

the two of them in unison, managed to make quite a racket ;o))

A linocut reduction means that I start by cutting away what I want to be white areas, I then roll up in the first color and all prints in the short edition of 14 prints, go through the press, for each print I have to ink up the plate again, I then cut away what I want to remain in that color, print all the prints and so on and on until the last color, all the time cutting away means I am left with the bare bones, which is why linocut reductions are also known as "lost plate". This print is rolled up very freehand, so the prints can vary a bit, I hope you will appreciate this as part of the creative process and why original prints are called original prints, each print rolled up in each color by me.

Drummers is printed in an edition of 14 prints, and I sign and number each print, please note you might not receive the number in the photo.

The heavy weight warm white printmaking paper measures 40 cm x 38 cm (16" x 15")
and the actual printed area measures 30 cm x 30 cm (12" x 12")

I ship with many years experience in packing my art so it arrives safely,
see my over 900 reviews!
Thanks for looking and welcome back, Mariann
