Prickly Poppy

Paper Size- 5x7 inches

This is a hand printed, open edition linocut of a delicate North American Wildflower - the White Prickly Poppy. Printed with professional oil based ink on warm toned Lokta paper from Nepal, this print has a vintage feel.

Prickly Poppies are delicate flowers surrounded by thistle-like leaves, which I found especially fun to carve.

I'm a hobby plant collector, and I'm almost certain I saw these in the ditch when driving through Texas... Now I'm wishing I would have stopped for a closer look and to press one!
