SKU: Ouseburn arches Category:

This is a reduction lino print of the bridges over the Ouseburn valley in Newcastle upon Tyne. It's a vibrant area full of traditional pubs and artists' studios. The print features the Byker road, rail and metro bridges, seen from beside the burn below.

A reduction lino print is made by cutting and printing a lino block, then cutting more into that same lino block and printing, then cutting again into the same block, and so on. For this Ouseburn print I cut and printed 3 layers from the same block, hence the 3 different colours in each print. The reduction technique means that you can't go back a layer, or reprint new editions.

I have made 2 versions of this print. One in orange and green, and a second in blue, purple and pink. They are limited editions of just 5 and 6 prints respectively, although I have only 1 of each print currently in stock.
The original prints are 7x5" in size and are sold unframed, although they fit well in a 12x10" frame, should you want to frame them yourself. Each print is named (Ouseburn arches i or ii), numbered and signed.

Delivery to all UK addresses is free. Prints are sold unmounted and are packaged in card-backed envelopes. Cards and prints are sent using Royal Mail, first class delivery. For packages needed urgently, or being sent abroad, please contact me directly before placing your order for postage options.
Orders will be processed within 5 days of receipt, although I do aim to dispatch as quickly as possible.
If you would like your print to be framed, I can arrange this for you - just get in touch for a quote before placing your order.
