A Dream of Fur and Feathers by Lori Biwer-Stewart

This is an original linocut by Lori Biwer-Stewart of Osage, Iowa. “A Dream of Fur and Feathers” is an original linocut print created and hand pulled in my studio on heavy weight Stonehenge printmaking paper. Each is hand painted with lightfast inks, so each print may vary slightly. What is this cat dreaming of? I think of birds and feathers. The muted colors of this print give it a bright and airy feel.This image was printed with 1 plates and 3 colors. Printed on heavy white Stonehenge printmaking paper. Image size: 9" x 12" Edition size: 10 Unframed piece is mounted on a piece of archival foamboard and packaged in a plastic sleeve. Signed and titled in pencil below the print. Linocut is a type of relief print. Relief printing is a technique where a piece of paper is “stamped” by the top surface of the plate painted in ink. A design is cut into the linoleum surface with a sharp knife and chisels. My education is in graphic design and that has been a big advantage to me as an artist. Kn
