Fern Season

$50.00

When I moved to the Midwest and my daughters moved to the South, we began talking about the seasons not as winter, spring, summer, and fall, but as the name of a plant you were likely to see on someone’s porch. So late spring is actually called fern season, something we all get very excited about! And this year, as I traveled back and forth between North Carolina and Michigan, the ferns hanging on our porches made creating this piece seamless.

Every print begins as a drawing that I carve by hand into a linoleum block. I make each print by hand, one at a time, so no two are exactly alike. Small variations in texture and ink coverage are part of the handmade process. I print on Somerset, a 100% cotton, archival printmaking paper made in England, using Cranfield's Caligo Safe Wash inks.

The image measures 6" × 8” on 11” × 14” paper, with generous margins, so it fits a standard frame with or without a mat. This design is available in black and deep green. Each color is a separate edition of 25, signed and numbered.

PLEASE ALLOW UP TO 10 DAYS FOR YOUR PRINT TO SHIP
