Warren Glen square card by Annie Soudain

Product description

Annie’s vigorous and colourful reduction linoprints often feature the plants, birds, and landscapes of her local area, the easternmost corner of East Sussex. She uses a variety of techniques, one of her favourites being the reduction method, where the entire design together with all the colours is built up through taking repeated impressions from a single block.

She also enjoys wax-resist painting on silk, a medium she finds not unrelated to linoprinting. The same method of building colours from light to dark applies, and the cut of the lino-tool and the movement of the tjanting call for the same kind of commitment and ideally convey the same kind of immediacy.
