Artwork description:

Sailing the oceans, the waves, the wind, the girls and of course, the tattoos!
I have printed the sailor on a piece of vintage sea chart that features the Baltic sea, it is a map for pilots, the people who lead ships in to harbours.
All my linocuts are handprinted by me, the artist,
and I sign, title and number each print.

This print is numbered as a monoprint, as each chart is different, you receive this very print. The charts I use are all well used, I think that adds to the print, thinking that people have used them to navigate, so there is wear and tear. I do print more of this Sailor.

The linocut itself measures 16" x 22", (41cm x 56cm )
and the beautiful piece of map
measures approx 19.75" x 26", (50cm x 68cm)

Linocuts are wonderful graphic pieces of printmaking, that can make for a real focal point in your room, you are so welcome to ask me about framing advice etc.

I ship from my studio in Denmark with many years experience in packing my art so it arrives safely, see my many reviews.

Thanks for looking and welcome back.
