Inspired by The Cruel Prince by Holly Black. I loved how the fairy’s could create and ride any animal they wanted but more often they road giant toads. Seemed like a bumpy but fun ride to me! The fairy’s described in the book were terrifying and intricate, I enjoyed creating a fairy that I expect to find in my mother’s garden instead.
This was my first reduction print, which means the same block was used for the print, with more carved away each layer. I started with the green layer, then pink, then to dark grey.
Unframed 5x7 original reduction linocut print.
Please Note: Each print is unique and will have slight variation from the one photographed. This is because each print is hand made from the same carved block. Printed on acid free 189 g/m² paper.
