One of my most challenging linocuts — and one of the most rewarding. I still remember the panic: “Where do I even startwith this chaos of branches?” But once I did, it became a beautiful journey of carving textures, light, and shadow.
This week, I printed the final 6 prints. The edition is now complete — and the block officially retired.
The last 5 prints (45/50 to 50/50) on Somerset Satin 300gsm.
The design of The Forest has been inspired by Quantock Hills in Somerset.
It has been hand carved out of lino to create unique blocks which I handprint the final images with. The print of The Forest has been hand burnishing without a press.
'The Forest' took 17 days to carve.
Every one is numbered and signed. This is limited edition of 50 prints.
