Cicada Print (Series of 8)
The study of a bug, from wing to food. I never knew that a cicada, a summer noise, was one of Earth's most fascinating creatures.
Handmade Block-Printed print printed with original design, made with a hand-carved linoleum block, and printed with Speedball screen printing ink.
Prints are printed on natural lokta paper. Each print comes signed, numbered, and titled. This print is part of a limited series of 8. Once this number is reached, it will not be reproduced.
Approximate size of print: 20.5"x 15"
Because all prints are made by hand, slight variations will occur, making your print uniquely yours!
Every block-printed item is handmade by VesperTwine's owner and artist, Cali. The block-printing process requires a three-day drying time which allows the ink to sink into the fabric of the garment. This gives every item a seamless, comfortable feel. Because every block-printed item is handmade, they all have unique "chatter" marks and areas of distress, making every shirt an original piece.

Care guide: Wash on a cold setting with a mild detergent. Slight fading on the first wash is expected due to excess ink.
Every screen-printed item is made to have the same look and feel as the original block-printed t-shirt but with a wider color range. After creating the block-printed t-shirt, a vector image is made and sent to a family-run screen-printing company based in the U.S. to be printed. If you'd like to know more about this process, there's a step-by-step guide on the homepage!
Care Guide: Wash on a cold setting and dry on a low tumble. Please do not iron these shirts.
