Devil's Kitchen (Linocut)

90 x 60 cm

Linocut

The Devil's Kitchen refers to a large crack in the cliffs along the southern side of Cwm Idwal, between the mountain peaks Glyder Fawr and Y Garn in the Snowdonia National Park. The Devil’s Kitchen gets its name because mist regularly rises up through the crack, it looks like smoke going up a chimney. In Welsh, The Devil's Kitchen is known as Twll Du, meaning Black Hole.

These prints are original linocuts. I cut directly into the lino using traditional hand tools. Then I ink up the block and print the edition one at a time. Each print is an original artist print.
