SECOND - The Reading Corner
SECOND - this is a misprint which is not included in the final edition and has been reduced in price accordingly. Please compare photo 2 with photo 1, which is the original edition. The black layer printed less solidly.
Handmade, limited edition linocut showing a child reading in an armchair.
This is an original linocut, handprinted from my home workshop in North Devon. It is a three-layer reduction print - which is a method of printmaking where only one block of lino is used to print from. You cut away more from the block each time and then print on top of the previous colour.
This linocut was selected for the Royal Society of Painter-Printmakers' International Original Print Exhibition 2025 and was also included in Pressing Matters magazine, issue 32 as part of their 'Black & Yellow Challenge' showcase.

Please note, I have tried my best to photograph the artwork in such a way that its true colours come across, but please be aware that colour will vary slightly from screen to screen. Also, since this work is handprinted, there are natural variances and minor imperfections in each print, which adds to the handmade charm and unique nature of the linocut.
