Artwork description:

A large reduction linocut inspired by a trip to San Francisco, featuring the entrance to the Japanese Tea Garden in Golden Gate Park, on a bright spring day.

A reduction print is a relief print formed with layers of colour that are cut and printed from the same block, in this case, from lino. This is one of a small edition of 8 prints, all of which are printed by hand so small variations occur between them making each one truly original.

This piece was printed in 23 colours over 12 layers, using water-based, light-fast inks on Somerset Satin paper and has a beautiful matt finish. It is numbered, titled and signed at the bottom, mounted in a neutral colour and wrapped in cellophane to keep it clean. The mounted work will fit in a 16x20inch frame.

This artwork will be packaged in a bubble envelope with plenty of card support for safety.

Materials used:

Printed on Somerset Satin with water-based light-fast inks. Mounted to fit into a 16 x 20 inch frame.
