This is an original hand carved and hand printed block print. Open variable edition on textured handmade paper.

Linocut and block printing is a form of printmaking referred to as relief printing.

My process in creating a print starts with an illustration. I then transfer the illustration to the block.

The image is carved into the block using specialty carving tools.

The carving process is a detailed and time consuming process, and requires a high level of attention and patience.

The blocks are then inked with archival quality ink and printed on acid free archival quality printmaking paper.

Due to the nature of the handmade process and the textured handmade paper, each print is unique and will have variations.

Your print will have four deckled edges.

Behind the Price Tag: Each of my hand-pulled prints is an original artwork - etched, carved, and printed by hand using traditional printmaking methods. There’s no digital reproduction here, just time, skill, and many quiet hours in the studio. These works are printed in small editions, signed, and made to last. My pricing reflects the labour, materials, and care involved - as well as my goal to make a sustainable living from my creative work. It’s easy to spend without hesitation on mass-produced items. This is something different: slow, personal, and created with intention.
