Holloway

90 x 60 cm

Linocut

A holloway (or tree tunnel) is a lane or track where the trees on each side form a more or less continuous canopy overhead, giving the effect of a tunnel. Ancient holloways have formed over many years as the passage of people erode the path, emphasising the tunnel effect. I drew this holloway in the South Downs National Park. It’s called Mill Lane in Halnaker.

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.

No. of prints in edition: 10
