Sunflowers

Hand carved and hand printed linocut print of sunflowers. Made with black ink on cream colored printmaking paper. Paper is about 16 x 20 inches, printed area is about 9 x 12 inches.

Limited edition of 50 with color variations available. Numbered, titled and signed in pencil below the printed area.

Since this linocut relief print is handmade each print edition will be slightly different and unique.

Additional details: The Sunflowers linocut is hand printed with professional quality black oil-based relief ink. It is printed on beige/natural color gampi fiber, handmade Japanese paper and features four natural deckled edges.

How a linocut is made: A linocut or linoleum print is a type of relief print where the image is carved with knives into a sheet of linoleum. The lino matrix is then rolled with relief ink and printed on paper, either by hand with a baron or on a printing press. The areas that are carved away will remain the paper color. The uncarved areas will transfer the ink to the paper.

These prints can also be called block prints, and they are similar to woodcut prints.
