There’s something incredibly powerful about giving art as a gift. It’s personal, lasting, and made with intention — especially when it’s created just for someone you love.

When it comes to meaningful milestones, few are as symbolic as the first wedding anniversary. Traditionally known as the paper anniversary, it’s a beautiful opportunity to reflect on the first chapter of your life together and to mark it with something thoughtful and lasting. A bespoke lino print — handmade on paper — couldn’t be more fitting.

“I didn’t know what I was looking for. I’ve never had ‘real art’ before – only the occasional print I’ve picked up at markets.

I love your colours. The way you see something and transform it into your own perspective is so beautiful.

Lino reduction print has become my favourite way to work over the last few years. When I explain it to people, it blows their mind how I can work this backwards process out as I go but it’s that uncertainty that is part of the appeal for me.

With this piece I really wanted to work more instinctively than I have in the past so I only traced off the sky, trunk outlines and bracken.
