Summer Ivy- Original handmade lino print individually hand printed by me the artist, this is not a digital print. Last summer my eye kept being drawn to some lush ivy creeping its way up an old railway bridge. This was at the start of the summer and the leaves were so lush and new I couldn't resist taking a photo. This was the start of this lino cut. The print is a 5 colour reduction linocut, meaning that the block is gradually carved away and the colours printed on top of each other. This has been printed on a Victorian Albion Press. It was printed using Cranfield Caligo Safe Wash relief ink. This is a non-toxic, high quality pigment printmaking ink with increased light-fastness. This is a limited edition of 8. The pictures are of number 3 but as each is individually hand made, colours and tones may vary slightly. Please message if you have any questions. Printed on Snowdon 300gsm paper. This print comes in an off-white mount ready for framing. It will be carefully wrapped and posted in a rigid packaging. Image size 200mm x 270mm Mount size 300mm x 405mm
