At the beginning of the new year, I felt I was facing a fresh start. Here, the alphabet is not yet arranged into words, but ready for me to write my future with in whatever way I choose. The flower isn't in full bloom yet, but ready to blossom into an amazing existence. All is in black, white and grey—but I have no doubt that vibrant colours will emerge. What was once the blank slate of my life is becoming wonderfully filled.

Limited edition

This is a limited edition of 50 "variable edition" (VE) prints, individually numbered and signed.

"Variable edition" means that print you receive may not be exactly as shown in the photos. Each print is unique due the handmade nature of printmaking, which produces subtle differences based on the alignment of the paper and linocut, ink coverage and pressure while printing.

When printing, I keep the environment in mind

I use:

• real linoleum sheets that are made from all-natural materials like wood pulp and linseed oil, and are fully biodegradable

• Cranfield’s Caligo Safe Wash Relief Inks, which are oil-based but don’t require harmful solvents to clean up after printing

• heavyweight, fine-textured paper that is acid-free, meaning it uses fewer chemical agents during manufacturing and won’t yellow or break down over time

• as little packaging as possible to ensure the print arrives to you safely.
