This print is about being alone. When I was a single mother, after my child had gone to bed, I spent so many nights alone. Sometimes the silence is a nice respite from the noise of life but at other times its just you and your thoughts. The moments just before bed are often the heaviest.
This print was made in 2011, however it appears even more appropriate for the present. So many people are alone, with their thoughts.
This print is linocut and hand painted with acrylic ink. The person and the leaves are lightly painted with ink. This print is a limited edition print. Each print takes several hours to design and carve. The printing process also requires for the print to be inked up and manually feed through a printing press, creating a unique and individual art piece.
Each print is created by hand and therefore there will always be slight variations with each print.
This print was printed on acid free artist quality paper.
