Works on paper: Linocuts, Fliss Watts 2004
Linocuts are a happy medium between drawing and sculpture, as the process of making the linocut is like carving a small relief but the end result is a simple, strong graphic image. The vigour of the marks and the accidental effects of the method make for a simple but lively print. I have recently started making prints inspired by the livestock in our vicinity, see more linocuts. (Sizes given are of lino from which the print is taken. Framed prints are available from Neo Gallery, Cockermouth, Cumbria 01900 829900, price £40. )
