For my grandma, Marlene, and my daughter, Marla.
Handprinted, original, reduction linocut print with 8 layers. Limited edition of 21 prints.
Printed in a range of rose pink tones and deep, scarlet reds with a watercolour blue background.
Reduction linocut prints are extra special because each layer has more of the linoleum block carved away before the next inking. This allows the artist to build up layers of different tones and colours and also means that once the prints are all sold, they can never be reprinted.
Each print is editioned and signed as part of a limited edition run of twenty-one prints.
This piece was created and designed by me, printmaker Sophia Luna, in my home studio in the historical, walled city of York.
Print: 5x5 inches (12.7 x 12.7 cm)
Paper: 6x6 inches (15.2 x 15.2 cm)
Please bear in mind that all colours are hand-mixed and each piece is printed and painted by hand. Each print will therefore vary slightly in colour and size.
