Reduction Print
The trout lily has its common name from the brown speckled pattern on its leaves, reminiscent of a brook trout’s markings. These wildflowers emerge in early spring, taking advantage of the sunlight before the forest develops it’s canopy.
Trout lily offers a mild peppery flavor that brings a delightful wild element to spring salads. The fresh young leaves and bulbs are edible, though harvesting should be done sparingly to protect native populations.
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.
