Hello, my name is Alexandra and I am the printmaker and artist behind MegaLilyDesign.
Thank you for visiting my Folksy shop, I hope that you find something that you like.
There is no additional postage charge across my shop at checkout, prints under £50 are sent by first class Royal Mail, prints over £50 are shipped tracked 48hr with Royal Mail, prints over £100 are shipped by courier. I aim to post all orders on the next working day and always within three working days.
If you are buying a print as a gift and you would like it sent directly to the recipient, I can add a handwritten note with your message at no extra charge. Please just add a note at checkout telling me what message you would like me to write in the note.
Unfortunately I have decided to no longer ship overseas due to the complexities and costs.
The idea of the globe as a dandelion seedhead began after my "Dandelion Clocks" print was completed. The delicacy of the dandelion clock and the ease with which it is destroyed felt quite poignant in the context of our climate emergency.
"Delicate World" was shortlisted for the Royal Academy Summer Exhibition.
Linocut is a relief printmaking method where an image is transferred or drawn directly in reverse onto the lino block. The image is then carved into the surface of the lino using mainly U and V shaped gouges. Ink is then applied to the block, paper laid onto the surface and hand burnished or pressed to lift the print. "Delicate World" requires 3 layers of ink to achieve the depth of black I wanted.
