Originally the design for this linoleum piece was different. I did draw ornaments in the vase at first. At the last moment I took a d-tour with the vase and decided to carve the stems of the flowers instead of the original decorations and I am very happy with the result! I made a small…

These sun and moon linoleum prints are made with a combination of reduction and puzzle technique. Both have 6 colour layers printed. DETAILS Printed…

I really enjoyed making these greeting card designs. It’s a series of six now, but I can imagine I will make some more to add to this series in the near future. These original linoleum print greeting cards are lovely to send, but also nice to frame as artworks and hang on your wall! They…

I made sets of each three greeting cards printed on brown kraft paper with matching enveloppes. There are 2 colour variations: a ultramarine blue set and a multi colour set with…
