Woodcut print

A garter snake winds through peony flowers—a fitting motif for the Year of the Snake. The design, inspired by Japanese Mokuhanga prints, is set against a beige background and framed with a decorative oval border. Printed on high-quality, sustainably sourced handmade paper that gives the piece an earthy, vintage appearance.

Solvent-free printmaking inks made from linseed oil and lightfast pigments.

Due to the handmade nature of the medium, each print is unique. Colors and details may vary slightly, and the print and the paper may have imperfections, including slight color misalignment in multicolor prints. These variations contribute to the individual charm and character of the print.
The prints are signed and numbered on the front side.
Frame not included. If you're looking for quality framing options in Europe, I personally use and recommend BGA. They offer a range of sizes, including custom options, in different materials.

Packaging

Your print will be shipped in secure, flat packaging that is plastic-free and made from eco-friendly materials. The packaging can be reused and recycled.

Print Care

To ensure that your print stays in the best condition, I recommend framing it. Keep the print at room temperature, away from direct sunlight, and in a location with controlled humidity. It's advisable to avoid using acidic materials in the framing process, as these can potentially affect the print over time. Additionally, ensure that the print doesn't come into direct contact with the glass to prevent yellowing.
