W48A black & white reduction linocut
Once upon a time there was an old telephone waiting for me in a flea market. It was more grey than black as the bakelite catched a lot of dust through years. As I dismantled it for a great cleanup, I found a few informations : this Siemens phone is a classic in Germany as it was produced from 1948 to the 70's.

I'm fond of old stuff and I was waiting for a good excuse to practice another reduction linocut. So here it is.

This print is an edition of 12, handprinted on BFK Rives paper with a baren which suffered a lot (still no press), using water washable inks, and is now available on my Etsy shop right here.
