Original Prints

An original print is not a reproduction from a painting or drawing. It was conceived as an original work of art in the form of a print. It is created by the artist on a surface on which he or she has worked, such as stone, copper plate, linoleum or wood block. A limited edition of impressions are taken from the inked-up surface and the number in the edition is usually written on the front of the work, above the total available.
