Hand printed and watercolored by Linda Griswold Davis, this is a view of Keuka Lake.

Linda Griswold Davis is a printmaker from Rochester, NY. She works in relief prints, both linoleum and woodblock. Her love of relief printss began years ago as an art major in college. Now a retired teacher, she enjoys the increased time available to create prints.

“I love the stark boldness of a relief print. Everything is definite with no illusions. The interplay of black and white imagery creates a marriage between the two. Sometimes I add watercolor to the print, adding a gentle contrast to the bold ink.”

All of her prints are multiple originals, not reproductions. Each is individually inked and printed. When watercolor is added, it is added to each print individually.
