Hand Printed ‘Tumbling’ Lino Reduction Print of a Vivid Blue Wave Crashing in the Sunrise, Inspired by The Beadnell Coast
Tumbling – Limited Edition Lino Print
Storm Babet. A wild North Sea. A moment of fearless joy.
Tumbling is a celebration of the raw, untamed waves of the North Sea. During a family visit to Beadnell, Storm Babet rolled in — and while most people stayed indoors, I grabbed my running shoes, sketchbook, and watercolours, and went out to meet the storm.
I sat (safely) on the rocks, mesmerised by the sea whipped into frenzy: waves tumbling over each other in a dramatic, powerful dance. That energy — that sense of wild freedom — is captured here in layers of colour, texture, and movement.
Whether you see power, calm, or adventure in it, Tumbling invites you to reconnect with the elements.
The Process
Created using the linocut reduction method, Tumbling is printed from a single block, carved back layer by layer. This irreversible process means the edition is truly limited — once the block is gone, it’s gone.
There are six layers of hand-rolled Cranfield Traditional oil-based relief ink, applied to archival-grade Fabriano Unica paper, a blend of 50% cotton and 50% wood pulp. The subtle surface texture allows for delicate variations in light and pigment.
Look closely and you’ll see zesty lemon yellows mingling with stormy teals and deep blues, hinting at the fleeting sunlight beneath the storm.
