Printing the ‘Mug Budgie’ in Black and white highlights the pure form of this kind of mark making. It captures the actions of a fun filled evening, ending in a hot chocolate splooshing onto the Protea tablecloth. Making a mockery of the refined space, this mug of a budgie is trying to regain their balance. A larrikin though and through, a true fleabag at the party. This is one of 5 prints in the Budgie edition.

Sold unframed, each image will be signed and dated as per convention. This is in an edition of 100 prints.

Lino block artworks go through a rigorous process when they are being printed and allow the artist to create multiple prints. There will be dents in the paper made by the Lino Block making an impression on the page, this is a part of the material practice leaving the paper slightly embossed. When purchasing unframed artworks, some printmaking marks may appear in the unprinted portion of the page, these should be covered when the work is mounted/framed.
