CARE GUIDE
The linocut printing proccess consists in transferring the design to a block made of the same material and carving it by hand , applying a layer of ink, and pressing against fabric or paper to transfer the image.
All our prints are designed, carved and printed by hand, so the colors and details may vary, making each piece unique and being faithful to our idea of authenticity.
Each design takes aproximately 14 hours to carve, which adds an extra of effort and affection that remains in each of the prints.
After printing, the drying varies according to the material and the temperature. The paper takes about 24 / 36h and the fabric 40 / 72h.
Being fabric, it is advisable to wash it with cold water (below 30º), since at high temperatures the ink can lose its intensity after several washes.
