We design and create all pieces by first hand drawing the design onto Lino, and then we hand carve the Lino. Next, ink is hand rolled on to the Lino plates, finally the design is ready to be pressed on to the card or paper using a hand barren.

All prints are individually hand printed and unique as such there may be small variations between ink density and colour.
