Wood Engravings

All the wood engravings have been cut on the end grain of a block of very hard Boxwood using very fine tools. The final image is printed by hand using an Albion Press which was made in 1862.The limited editions are printed on either Arches, or Zerkall acid free papers, signed , numbered and titled in pencil.

Where colour has been used in these prints the artist has cut multiple blocks, one for each colour, the key block is engraved first – usually a black or dark colour – and this will be printed last. The superimposing of each film of colour one upon another also enables an additional colour to be achieved [ e.g. green from blue over yellow ], this is because of an element of transparency in the inks. Careful registration of the separate colours is of course important at the printing stage.

Wood engravings can be ordered directly from the artist. The size shown is of the image, not the paper or mount size. Prices include a high quality Museum board mount for conservation reasons. The mounts are either white or off white. Alternatively work can be supplied unmounted in a presentation folder
