Whaling Town Hand pulled Linoprint

Description

Whaling Town Hand pulled Linoprint

This is my tribute to Dundee, a city on the east coast of Scotland near where i live. Dundee, like many other coastal towns, established itself as a whaling port during the 19th century. There are still traces of its history around the town including the dock lands, see 5th image for reference although no whale!


The linocut measures approx 30 cm x14 cm, is printed using linseed oil based inks designed specifically for relief printmaking, and is printed on acid free, archival quality paper (Heritage), Signed, numbered and dated.
The process of linoprinting involves hand drawing on to a piece of linoleum, using lino cutting tools to then cut the piece and finally hand printing using a Press. This process is the repeated if neccesary, depending on the number of colours applied.
This print is one of a run of 12, I never reproduce my prints digitally so rest assured you will own one of only 12 in existence.

Please feel free to convo me with any questions and thank-you for taking the time to look.
Please note copyright does not transfer with the purchase of the print.
