Lake Beyond Blue Limited Edition Lino Print

Lake beyond Blue is a limited edition lino print inspired by springtime at the lake near to my studio in Cornwall.  I sat by the lake and drew this scene from direct observation, watching the first swallows of the year swooped over the lake, through wildflowers and the woodland beyond.

I create textiles and prints to capture a sense of place and invite an immersion into the wild beauty of West Cornwall’s landscape, flora and fauna; with its hidden woodlands, sweeping curves of moorland and coastlines where the Atlantic Ocean meets the skies.

Nestled inland from the coast, I work surrounded by meadows and woodlands. I gain a deep sense of place by revisiting the same locations to draw and paint from direct observation, exploring the colours and fauna as they change with the seasons and time of day. Back in my studio I create detailed botanical studies of the plants I’ve collected. Gradually I develop the compositions and colours for my prints and textiles, often layering the minutia of nature within larger landscapes.

This limited edition print measures 30 x 30 cm.

Framing is available upon request.
