The Jesus and Mary Chain
Kill Surf City meets The Endless Summer!
I was inspired by the rad Scotsmen's references to the beach, summer, and surf vibes in several songs including their cover of The Beach Boys' "Surfin' USA". I wanted to create a print to illustrate how The MaryChain may dress all in black, but they are a band of many colours.
The Print:
This is a 4 colour REDUCTION linocut print. That means all the layers were created by carving from a single linoleum block. Because it is a reduction print, it is a limited edition of 10 and the linoleum block can never be printed again. This print is hand-carved and hand-pressed. That makes it extra special.
I mixed non-toxic oil-based relief inks and printed the lino block on a lightweight, natural white 120 g/m acid-free printmaking paper. The paper size is 8" x 10". The print size is 6" x 9".
Each print is numbered and signed on the front bottom of the print. Limited edition of 10!
Each print will be shipped with a backing board, wrapped in plastic and enclosed in a hard mailer.
