'An Gearran' A3 digital print reproduction of original screen print by illustrator and printmaker Abbie Lois.

Abbie Lois is an illustrator and printmaker based in Glasgow, whose work is inspired by storytelling and folklore. Her work usually has a specific lore behind the piece - themes surrounding landscapes, ancient creatures or interesting people. 

Each print measures 210mm x 420mm (A3), and is digitally printed on to high quality 250gsm perlino cotton paper. It is protected by a cellophane sleeve.

The print comes with a card which explains the story behind the piece.

At the very start of February, it’s said that the Cailleach - the goddess of the Scottish landscape and all which resides there - is faced with two possibilities. The first; it’s a beautiful sunny day, meaning that she can collect firewood to make winter last another month from her mountain abode. The second; the day is rainy and miserable, meaning she cannot gather her firewood, and winter won’t last much longer as she will return to her deep slumber over the spring and summer months.
