Product description

Annie’s vigorous and colourful reduction linoprints often feature the plants, birds, and landscapes of her local area, the easternmost corner of East Sussex. She uses a variety of techniques, one of her favourites being the reduction method, where the entire design together with all the colours is built up through taking repeated impressions from a single block.

She also enjoys wax-resist painting on silk, a medium she finds not unrelated to linoprinting. The same method of building colours from light to dark applies, and the cut of the lino-tool and the movement of the tjanting call for the same kind of commitment and ideally convey the same kind of immediacy.
