Reduction Print

The fruit of sumacs are edible. They can be soaked and washed in cold water, strained, sweetened and made into a pink “lemonade” sometimes called “Indian lemonade”. The fruit was found to have certain natural antioxidant and antimicrobial properties.

All my artwork is handmade and original with a mix of limited and open edition linocut prints. The prints are designed, made, pressed and pulled in my studio in the Laurentides, Canada.

Please note: Because of its handmade nature there may be tiny variations to the picture- be this colour, evenness of ink or other small differences.
