Linoprints
Using the traditional method of linocutting these images are printed onto vintage books and maps, some of which are over 100 years old! The technique creates a truly unique image as the prints are handmade and the pages used are always different. The books used are always from charity shops and are usually destined for the shredder before I turn them into pieces of art that will be cherished for the same reasons the books were cherished in the first place. The pages are spray mounted onto heavy, high quality card and presented in simple tasteful mounts. Sizes vary depending on the book used.
