A handcarved and printed one colour linoprint. Printed in copper oil based ink on somerset Velevet black paper, 300gsm weight.
Depicting a tulip flower and bulb surrounded by jasmine, brambles, and mini meteors, encased in a decorative border.

Printed as a variable edition meaning that each print can have different colours. 40 have been printed in this colour.

I have tried to photograph the prints with different light levels to show that the copper shines when it catches the light. The copper can appear as a rich warm metallic, or a lighter copper depending on the light source, and time of the day. In the photos I've shown the print as different times of the day so that you can see how the colour changes.

Printed in oil based ink on Fabriano Rosaspina 280gsm paper.

This print has been inspired by medieval illustrations found in 'herbals' which were books depicting plants and their uses, and medieval illuminated manuscripts. The subject matter is drawn directly from tulips that I grew myself for the first time this year. I began researching into 'Tulip Mania' in the Dutch Golden Age, where tulip bulbs could be bought for the price of a house. The meteors flying around tell something of this extroadinary time, as meteors and comets were viewed as auspicious, and the bringer of strange events.

Each printed is signed, dated and numbered in the edition. Arrives securely packaged in a hard backed package.
