"I'm listening" - an original handprinted wood engraving on lemonwood. 
 
Wood engraving is a form of relief printmaking. The image is engraved with very sharp finely-pointed tools into a mirror- smooth surface of an endgrain block (in this case - lemonwood). The surface is then inked up and the image is printed onto paper. I print using an antique cast iron Albion press made in 1868.
 
Handprinted in highly-pigmented oil-based ink in Carbon Black on premium printmaking paper.
 
Image size 8x10cm. Paper size is appr 16x22 cm. Titled, numbered and signed in pencil.
A limited edition of 75. 
Because the image is inked and printed by hand, there may be slight variations in tone. 
 
Will be shipped flat, carefully wrapped in acid-free tissue, sandwiched between 2 sturdy boards and packaged in a protective envelop to ensure safe delivery. Comes with a certificate of authenticity.
 
Sold unframed and unmounted. You can also purchase a mounted print that will fit a standard 8x10 inches frame.
