The Harbourside Bucca – Cornish Spirit – Limited Edition Lino Print
Based in Cornwall in the darker time of the year, with glimmers of light in the form of the village fairy lights, illuminated lighthouse, starlight and full moon, we quake in our boots at the howling and whooping of the local buccas, (Cornish devils or earth spirits) whose calls can be heard in certain coves and areas of villages on particularly stormy nights. The scene is also illuminated with a gigantic pair of glowing eyes and moonlit details including large fangs. However, he may well be harmless and a spirit who watches over fishermen, who would often leave offerings of fish in a designated area for the bucca. Based on an amalgamation of stories from the Newlun area and places with “bucca” in the place name”.

Fire in the Hole – Devil and Sinner – Limited Edition Lino Print
Bit warm up here on the planes of Earth isn’t it?
