Pregnant Goddess is an original linocut print depicting a pregnant woman floating peacefully under the crescent moon and starry sky, This linocut print is in ode to the moment of tranquility and lightness of floating in water, whether that's a lake, your bath or the sea.
This print is hand relieved with a hand-carved linocut block. This process starts by carving a linoleum (either Japanese or battleship) block with a design, then inking the block and using the Etching press to print the image onto the paper.
The paper is heavyweight 280 gsm premium quality printmaking paper. It is 60% cotton, acid-free and archival. this means that is it 'long life' standard therefore giving the assurance of excellent conservation over time. Linocut printing is a traditional process where the paper picks up some of the stray marks (or "chatter") left intentionally on the block.
this print comes unframed, signed and posted in eco friendly packaging, every print pull is slightly different and will produce different textures and this is what i adore about relief printmaking
This linocut is made to order and the ink takes a few days to dry
