A CANDLE FOR UKRAINE

Original Hand-tinted Relief Print issued November/December 2022

Image size 4" high by 3" wide (100 mm by 75 mm)
(Low resolution image illustrated)


I designed and cut this little linocut relief print in late summer, while thinking about the disastrous invasion of Ukraine, and the incredible horror of all of the atrocities and war crimes being committed by the filthy lying ruscist bastards. SLAVA UKRAINE! I wanted a very simple image that would convey my sentiments, and so I reduced it to the very minimum of elements. I didn't even add my usual monogram in the plate. The open edition is printed on Arches Text Wove paper 120 gsm. All impressions were hand printed by the artist with Caligo Safe Wash Furnace Carbon Black relief printing ink, using an antique J. Smart copy press. All prints are hand coloured with Pitt artist India ink brush pens. All prints are titled, signed and dated by the artist in pencil. It might be worth noting that I matted and framed an impression of this print and mailed it as a gift to President Zelenskyy. I later received a thank you letter from the Office of the President.
