Wastwater is situated in the Wasdale Valley in the Lake District National Park. Wastwater is England's deepest lake and three miles long. At the head of the lake sit Scarfel Pike, England’s highest mountain, Great Gable, Red Pike and Kirk Fell.
 
My June 2022 camping trip to Wasdale Valley inspired this original print. The view is from the lake's southwestern end, with the mountains of Yewbarrow, Great Gable, and Lingmell behind. 
 
Wastwater is a 6-colour linocut print, which has been hand-printed in oil-based inks.

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.
