Artwork description:

I make my Linocut Prints by hand in my studio in York. make my Linocut Prints by hand in my studio in York. I carve the image out of Lino and then I roll a thin layer of ink onto this. I print on acid free, 220gsm Windsor and Newton paper using oil-based inks using my etching press I have finished the print by hand-colouring using a water based medium.
I often base my images on things I see when out on my walks in the Yorkshire countryside or working on my allotment. I find plants and wildlife very inspiring. This particular print was inspired by my sister's chickens on her smallholding. This print is one out of a limited edition of 100. Each print is numbered and signed. The prints vary slightly as they are hand made so they are all unique! These works represent an affordable way to collect handmade, limited edition art.
Please note the actual image size is 30 X 20 cm but the paper size is larger as there is a white border of approximately 5 cm around each side of the image to enable you to frame the image as you wish.
All prints are wrapped in cellophane and are shipped in a sturdy envelope stiffened with card. I use Royal Mail to send artwork abroad and it is first class and tracked postage. If I find I have overcharged for postage and packaging, I refund the difference.
