Wintering is a two colour linocut print on heavyweight Fabriano Rosaspina paper in oil based teal and dark green ink.
"Titled 'Wintering' this print was drawn and designed on the winter solstice on the shortest day of the year. I drew directly onto the linoblock, and sketched out a hellebore and different fern varieties-all plants that I associate with winter. The ferns twist and curve, dancing upwards towards the light."

A lover of the natural world, Cally's prints are inspired by nature and folklore. She is based in London, but is constantly drawn to the beauty of nature and its place within the world. She began producing etchings and collagraphs at art college, and came to linocut printmaking much later. She really fell in love with the process of linocut; something about the carved line as a way to translate her sketches, and to explore pattern and texture.
