This square linocut print depicts a Wren with Blackberries in the suns rays. In a Blue-greyish colourway on a soft white paper.
I have a few paper and colourway variations of this print, but there is only one colour way to buy on this shop - if you would like it in another colourway, please contact to enquire what I have available and I will be happy to help.
I designed this poem with a Haiku I wrote in mind. "Summers falling rays, Draw in fleeting dappled days, Ripe for Winters rest" - by Cristabel Chalkley

---The Relief Print Process--- I currently make all my prints by hand - coming up with, and drawing the design, tracing it to Lino or Wood and then carving, inking and pressing the Print. All in my home studio in Edinburgh. Due to each Print being separately inked and pressed by hand, there are small variations in the colour coverage, such is the nature of Relief printing - lending each print being totally unique to you.
---Planet Friendly--- I do my best in my personal and Business life to think about the planet - from what inks I use and the companies I buy from, to how someone would dispose of something they have purchased from me after they have finished with it, to using up what I already have available to me. Anything I have included in your package, including the package itself, has been thought about with environment and our future planet in mind.
