'British Broadleaf Trees' Original Lino Cut Print
An original lino cut print exploring a select few of the beautiful broadleaf trees we are lucky enough to have here in Britain, and some of the species that depend on them for their survival.
Printed in a deep forest green on Khadi lokta washi paper (BROWN, 60gsm), or Mitsumata washi paper (WHITE, 60gsm). Measuring 80 × 54cm. Limited edition of 30 on each paper.
Weaving from beech trees that provide the perfect backdrop for nesting birds, to rowan’s red berries providing food for a multitude of animals and birds, including mistle thrushes, its leaves feeding caterpillars. Field maple’s keys flutter down, and its sticky sap provides food for aphids, who are in turn food for ladybirds. The small leaved lime tree attracts aphids and the lime hawk moth, named for its close relationship with the tree. A red squirrel is one of the many animals reliant on the oak, a tree that supports more life than any other native tree species in the U.K. If you look closely you can see Britain’s largest and rarest ground beetle climbing its branches searching for food. Hazel provides nuts for dormice and humans alike, and the wild cherry’s fruits hang red and ripe. Ash, once a familiar sight but now sadly declining, drapes its leaves and keys across the composition.
Please note all prints are hand made, as is the paper. Small differences and irregularities in the prints are to be expected, and are part of their charm!
