This print was inspired by all the local walks I have made during lockdown 2020 around my home village of Ashwell in Hertfordshire. As the seasons turned the hedgerows were brimming with fruit, berries and seeds and all the fields were freshly ploughed. Printed with Mustard yellow and Prussian blue. Linocut Print – A relief printing technique where lino is cut, inked and rolled to create an inverse relief print, generating the image as seen. Edition numbers may vary.
