 Reduction Print

The fruit of sumacs are edible. You can soak them in cold water and make a pink “lemonade”. The fruit has certain natural antioxidant and antimicrobial properties.

All my artwork is handmade and original with a mix of limited and open edition linocut prints. I design, carve, press and pull the prints 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.
