5x7 Cute Black Bear in a Hammock Linocut Print, Appalachian Mountain Animal Cabin Decor, Asheville North Carolina Art, Handmade Camping Gift

Asheville, North Carolina was the inspiration for this print of a black bear in a hammock in the mountains. I lived there for many years and was lucky enough to see them often, sometimes in my backyard and other times along the Blue Ridge Parkway. It never got old! This print combines one of my favorite hobbies, lounging in a hammock, with black bears. It'd make a great gift or thank you and will brighten up anyone's wall or space.

DETAILS: PRINT ONLY — FRAME NOT INCLUDED Any frames shown are to help you envision them in your space.

SIZE: 5x7 inch / 12.7x17.8 cm paper. Hand-printed on white Strathmore Printmaking Paper (120 g/m²) The ink I use is water-based Speedball ink. Colors are black and a green that I had mix. The greens may vary slightly since they are unique to each printing session. Signed by the artist. Each print is unique since each one is hand made.

PROCESS: First, a creative idea comes to mind. Then I draw a sketch onto my block and carve it out by hand using block print tools. Then I roll the water-based ink onto the block with my rubber brayer and press it with my glass baren. Sometimes instead of the brayer I will use my Woodzilla press and finish with the baren. The printing part is my favorite and that, too is done by hand. Each print is individually inked and pulled by hand, then signed by me.

PLEASE NOTE: Each print is handmade so there may be slight variations. That is what makes each one unique! The colors may vary slightly due to different screen settings. Any frames you see are not included.

SHIPPING: They are lovingly packaged in an acid-free protective sleeve with two pieces of backing board in a hard mailer. Please refer to my shipping policies before placing an order.
