High and Dry Original reduction lino print. Edition of 14, no more can be made. printed on 300g snowdon paper with caligo safe wash Eco ink. There is also an recarved open edition in black only. This print is of a old wooden boat I found in the salt marshes of the north Norfolk coast. I love old boats and have built two myself, which is why I love taking photos of them. I think deep down I want to take them home and fix them up. Jake Richards is a new print maker, having caught the printing bug in July 2019. He is also a Fire Fighter in Somerset. Jake works in Linoleum reduction printing, a process made famous by Pablo Picasso. Reduction prints are made from one linoleum block which is printed multiple times. This process is often referred to as the suicide print. The block is carved between each printing so that less of the block prints each time. The entire edition must be printed from the start. No proofs can be made and no part of the process can be reprinted. Jake designs, carves, and hand prints small editions using professional eco printing ink and wood free, ph neutral printing paper at his home in Somerset. All Jake's prints are Editioned, Titled, signed and dated.
