Suffolk Beach Huts, Painting by Fiona Carver Anyone who has been to Southwold in Suffolk will recognise this gorgeous row of beach huts looking out to sea. They nestle along the edge of the grassy dunes in a typically British seaside scene. Additional information: The print is hand pulled using oil based inks on archival paper. It uses 6 lino blocks. Limited edition of 50 Image Size: 33 x 20cm Mounted size: 47.3cm x 34.5cm Size: H:34.5 cm x W:47.3 cm Fiona has been creating things since she was a tiny girl when her grandmother would encourage her to draw elaborate chalk pictures on her kitchen floor.

Apple Blossom by Fiona Carver [2021] Apple Blossom is an original limited edition linocut print by Fiona Carver, inspired by the beautiful spring blossom in her garden.

Grazing by the Estuary, Painting by Fiona Carver Grazing by the Estuary is an original limited edition linocut by Fiona Carver illustrating sheep grazing gently on the banks of a typical Cornish Estuary. The lovely pink hydrangeas are growing and, as you’d expect in Du Maurier country, the dark trees reach down the hill to the water’s edge. It is hand printed using four lino blocks on archival paper. Edition of 50 Fiona Carver is a painter and printmaker from the Rutland/Leicestershire border. She trained at Edinburgh College of Art graduating with a BA (hons) in 1999 and now creates contemporary oil paintings and linocuts of the land and sea. She is interested in capturing an impression of a place, the atmosphere, colours and emotion experienced at that time. Her paintings are completed mostly ‘en plein air’ meaning they are painted outdoors, usually in one sitting. That way she can capture the light and weather, getting the brush marks down before it changes. The challenges of painting in wind or rain, with moving subjects and changing views adds to the exhilaration of finishing a painting, stepping back, stretching and absorbing what is on the canvas. The process of creating a linocut makes a nice contrast for Fiona with it’s slow, methodical planning. She cuts multiple blocks for each print, one for each colour, and layers them to build up the image. She usually has a good idea of what the finished piece will look like but this can change as the image progresses and Fiona will often adapt it as she goes along. She is interested by the process of etched lino and experiments with this to create texture and energy in her practice.
