Artwork description:

The green man is a historic symbol of hope in nature and rebirth.
He has many variations. Traditionally leaves or branches sprout from his mouth nostrils and other parts of his face. He first appeared in England in the early 12th century and is often used as a decorative architectural ornament on churches.

This is a hand made, limited edition, original linocut print.
It was produced by the reduction method whereby a block of lino is carved, inked and printed in stages, to allow a picture to be built up of layers of colours. Once the final layer is carved and printed the lino block is no longer useable and no more prints can be made.
It comes from a small edition of 22 prints.
Size of printed area 30 x 21 cm
Signed by me, titled and numbered on the front.
Sold unframed for you display as you choose.

PLEASE NOTE: THIS ITEM IS HANDMADE AND NOT MASS PRODUCED.
ALL THE PRINTS IN THE EDITION ARE CARVED AND PRINTED AT THE SAME TIME, USING HIGH QUALITY INKS AND SOMERSET SATIN PAPER, BUT THESE ARE SUBJECT TO VARIATIONS SUCH AS TEMPERATURE, PRESSURE and APPLICATION. SO ALTHOUGH SUPERFICIALLY IDENTICAL, EACH PRINT WILL HAVE SMALL VARIATIONS, MAKING IT COMPLETELY UNIQUE.
Packaging
This print will be wrapped in acid free tissue paper and secured in a moisture proof cello bag. It will then be protected by two strong pieces of cardboard (I try to use recycled cardboard packaging whenever I can) I use Royal mail tracked service for all my prints.

Please note, the picture in the room mock up that I use is an example and not properly to scale, please check the actual dimensions of the artwork.
