- 'Fox and Foxgloves'
This original lino print contains foxes, foxgloves and alder leaves as well as beautiful illustrative detail and pattern. It is printed with oil based ink on Somerset satin white paper. Each print will be slightly different as the plate is inked up in a painterly way so there is some colour variation on this dark red, brown and black theme.
Foxes have appeared in countless folk tales and were honored for their wisdom and are a symbol of diplomacy. Fox cubs were said to wear fox glove flowers on their paws to keep them warm! Alder is the tree associated with the fox in the Celtic Ogham system of wisdom.
