A view of the Newlands Valley in the Lake District.
 
Celebrate your love of the Lake District with this hand-printed linocut of the Newlands Valley. This linocut print features Hinscarth and Robinson mountains, part of the Newlands Round, in the distance, with bracken in the foreground. 
 
A perfect gift for hikers and mountain lovers, this original print captures the Newland valley in Cumbria. A thoughtful gift for walkers and Lake District lovers.
 
Inspiration
The linocut print is inspired by a photo I took of a view I loved while walking in the Newlands Valley. It was a circular walk, starting from Little Town, walking along the valley floor alongside Newlands Beck, and then up to Dale Head. If you’ve not been, it’s a hidden gem. It’s so incredibly peaceful. The valley is on the other side of the Cat Bells from Derwent Water. See photos in my Keswick and Newland Valley walking blog.
 
​​How it’s Made
Printed by hand in Yorkshire using traditional linocut techniques, this artwork is made using the multi-block process and three hand-carved lino blocks — one for each colour. Each colour is individually printed with oil-based ink on soft white, acid-free paper, with several days of drying between layers. See a short video showing how I made Newlands Valley on YouTube.

How to Take Care of Your Original Print
This original print is created using professional, high-quality oil-based inks, along with acid-free paper and mounts. While the inks have excellent lightfastness, I recommend hanging your print out of direct sunlight. Read more on my FAQs page.
