Wood cut / Wood block prints

Loch Awe in Argyll Scotland is a truly magnificent place.
While staying there I took inspiration from the young girls in Wellington boots throwing stones in the water just along from the ruins of Kilchurn Castle as the sun set behind the hills and mountains. in creating this image I show the beauty that is innocence in a place that is timeless.
the image is hand carved into Ash wood before being varnished and prepared to print. each image is created by carefully applying an even coat of Blue oil ink to the wood before gently pressing in to the delicate cotton Japanese paper, then allowed up to a week to dry.
23 x 14 cm (9 x 5.5 inches) item is available with frame on request at an additional charge.
The Grain of the wood used is visible on the print adding authenticity to its production and is signed.
