Just finished these new reduction linoleum prints! I made 2 colour versions of this larger size lino piece, a pink/purple colour scheme and a green/ purple one, which is not the usual colour style for me to work with but I like a lot actually. They are limited edition print runs. Each print is individually…

Here’s the 12th print of my bird portraits series. This new portrait is inspired by the Barn swallow. It’s a reduction linoleum print with 11 colour layers. And I just love the colour palette of this one. Not only because I’m a fan of blue. By accidentally mixing too much ink for the first colour, there…
