Framed woodblocks

Unusual and striking, I love creating the framed woodblocks for the extraordinary depths of colour achieved by using vibrant opaque tones and subtle translucent washes. Delicately cut paper stencil motifs, including birds and leaves, contrast with painterly marks to bring the natural woodgrain to life. Handprinted on solid Maple, with a softwood frame, woodblocks have a beachcombed driftwood aesthetic and look fabulous in a contemporary space for a hit of sumptuous colour - I’m imagining Cape Cod Modernist beach houses….you’ve seen the movies…
