A limited edition, four colour reduction linocut in purple and lilac with metallic gold printed in oil based ink on Fabriano Rosaspina 280 gsm weight paper. The gold shimmers in natural and ambient light. The lettering is printed in a very dark blue though shows up black in the photographs.

A reduction cut linoprint is when each colour that has been printed is carved away. This means that there is virtually nothing left on the block after printing the last colour, so the block can not be printed again.

This print started with the phrase "Print Isn't Dead". Used by People of Print, (a print organisation Cally is a member of) it's a rallying cry that's become even more poinant against the rise of AI in Art. The need for hand crafted becomes more pressing in the face of something so faceless and devoid of humanity.

"I began thinking of how we are always eager to embrace what we see as progress, often at a great cost-the damage is done before it is too late. We have done this to our natural world, driving many species to extinction and often it has been due to pure greed. So I began to researching extinct and endangered flora and fauna, not expecting to find so many. It was very sobering. I read the back story on each one in this image, and combined them, staged, within the lettering. The final metallic gold alludes to the myth of King Midas and his greed which turned everything to gold, but in turn destroying it all in the process."

The flora and fauna included in this print are clockwise, left to right:
St. Helena Olive, Titan Arum (native to Sumatra, very few are now found in the wild, most are in botanical gardens like Kew Gardens) the Carolina Parakeet, Cry Violet flower, the Cooksonia plant, the Japanese Honshu Wolf, the Jamaican Sunset Moth, the Silphium flower, the Laughing Owl, the Large Copper Butterfly, the Black Mamo bird, the Apple Bumblebee (became extinct in Kent, UK), the Long-Tailed Hopping Mouse, the Dodo, the Franklin tree plant, the Chocolate Cosmos (extinct in the wild), and the Thylacine.

Image size: 30.5 x 24.5 cm.
Paper size: 42 x 38.5 cm.
Variable edition of 12 (only 5 exists in this colourway), numbered with EV (edition variable), titled and signed.

A variable editon (or EV edition variable) means that the artist has deliberately changed something during the edition when printing from the same block, and in this case it's the colour.

A lover of the natural world, Cally's prints are inspired by nature and folklore. She is based in London, but is constantly drawn to the beauty of nature and its place within the world. She began producing etchings and collagraphs at art college, and came to linocut printmaking much later. She really fell in love with the process of linocut; something about the carved line as a way to translate her sketches, and to explore pattern and texture.

Easy to use! No more hand cranking.
If you like the ease of an electric can opener, but don’t have room to store it or don’t want to drag it out when you need to use it, this is for you. I like a handheld can opener, but would get so frustrated trying to use it and turn the handle. This can opener is amazing and so easy to use. Just attach to can and push a button. It starts turning on its own and when it is done it stops. You lift it up and the lid comes off cleanly. It is rechargeable so need to worry about batteries. It tucks away in a drawer nicely. I bought my mom one too. She has arthritis in her hands so thought this would be perfect for her.

Smooth edges better than twisting
Works a lot better than the crank style and the counter top electric and you can use the lid to reseal the can if you don't use the whole thing.

Worked for only 4 months. Now produces metal shards. Dangerous
Pros: Can be used with one hand. I bought this to have after surgery that left me without use of one arm for a few months. The light blinks when you need to charge it. Only needs a 2-3 min charge for enough juice to open a can. Cons: IT QUIT CUTTING CORRECTLY AFTER 4 MONTHS. I now have to use both hands to hold it in place to get it to latch on to the can. It also requires a few rotations around the top to cut through the seal, resulting in METAL SHARDS! The metal shards are super sharp and almost invisible. I stabbed myself with one enough to draw blood. This is dangerous as the metal could fall into the food when pouring from the can.

Can opener
It doesn't shut off by itself when done and doesn't shut off when I push the button, so after a while it will shut off but when it wants too after you take it off the can ,like 30 seconds. But I do like the way it cuts, a clean cut and lid removal nice.
