The Pea Shaker

A beautiful hand-carved and hand-printed linocut print on Zerkall extra smooth paper.  Mounted ready to be framed.

Inspiration

Every summer when our veg patch becomes lush with vegetation, the sparrows dive into our pea plants and shake them about, presumably looking for insects or any other tasty delights.  Sometimes quiet, sometimes noisy and boisterous - always a joy to share the garden with.

How it's made

The Pea Shaker started as a rough sketch then a finessed hand drawn design that I transferred onto a lino plate.  I hand-carved the plate before inking and hand-printing it using Caligo inks on acid free paper.

Details

Linocut size 20 cm x 20 cm

Mounted to fit a 30 cm x 30 cm frame (ready made frames are available in this size)

Each print is titled and signed by me.

Each print is mounted with a conservation quality mount, backed with acid free paper and wrapped in cellophane.

Don't forget it's an original print, not a digital reproduction.
