Introducing The Grumpy Toad, a perfectly prickly character who's not thrilled about the mushrooms growing on his back. With a scowl and a slight huff, this toad doesn’t quite understand the charm of the fungi sprouting from his shell, but it’s clear that life goes on in his own grumpy little world.
This A4 linocut print captures his mood in all its glory, showcasing his warty texture and the quirky detail of the mushrooms that just keep growing. Whether you're drawn to the humor in his frown or the whimsical nature of his unexpected companions, this print will add character to any space.
Each print is made with high-quality Cranfield oil-based ink on richly textured Nepalese Lokta paper, making it not only visually striking but tactile as well. The design is hand-drawn, carved from linoleum, and then printed by hand—ensuring that each piece has its own unique touches and minor imperfections, which are all part of the charm of lino printing.
