Relief Printing

One of the best Christmas presents I ever received as a child was a simple lino cutting set. On rediscovering this set and inheriting some more cutting tools I have started making prints again. Starting with simple black and white images I have moved on to  introducing multiple colours into my prints using the reduction process. Inspired by Claire Leighton's illustrations for her 1935 book Four Hedges, I have also tried my hand at Wood Engraving, another relief printing method.
