Illustration of crop circles with geometric patterns in white on a reddish-orange background, with the words 'CROP CIRCLES' at the bottom.

BEFORE YOU BUY

Please read this page before purchasing. All artworks are highly accurate scaled down images of authentic crop circles with nothing changed, added to or taken away from the exact imprint as it appeared. Many hours are spent studying and cross referencing each design chosen, from film and drone footage, specialized websites, books and photographs.

Every print within an edition is inked by hand so the tone of colour of each print will vary slightly from the image on the Shop page. Tiny variations are normal with handmade editions but is deliberately kept to a minimum. This and the embossed crop circle image within the paper is what is known as ‘proof of process’ ~ proof the work is a handmade original and not a digital copy.

The print edition number, the area, month and year the crop circle appeared is all written by hand in pencil along the bottom just underneath the artwork. If documented I will include the circles diameter in the details on the SHOP page. There will be more works added to this site every 4-6 months. All our work is strictly copyrighted and cannot be reproduced without our written consent.

PRINTS

Woodcut relief printmaking is an ancient technique originating in China and Japan which involves engraving into a flat wooden surface and is how I create these works. Each handmade print available to you is from a small limited edition of between 5 and 21. A limited edition print means the artist creates a finite number of that design and colour. We are not interested in mass production or digital printing and you have my personal guarantee we will never reproduce a work once the full edition of that design is sold out.

Made on heavy white 300+gsm conservation grade printmaking paper with the finest oil-based inks, you can be assured all materials are the best in the world making your artwork of high conservation value.

WATERCOLOUR PAINTINGS

My crop circle watercolour paintings are originals, each having been first drawn in pencil, carefully prepared by wetting, stretching and then drying the paper before being painted by hand. The finished quality differs from the prints as they have a more organic and delicate look to them. The heavy watercolour paper is between 300-600+gsm cold pressed Arche or Canson and the paints used professional artist grade Windsor & Newton or Daniel Smith pigments.

CROP CIRCLE DESIGN COPYRIGHT

To date there is no copyright on any crop circle design - unless it has been pre planned, filmed and documented with the landowner’s permission. This has rarely occurred but when done it has been relatively small, of simple design and has taken many long hours in the light of day, for all to see by a large team of people. Anyone who takes images by photography, film or creates artwork inspired by the crop circle does retain copyright of their own original work however.

GIFTING BACK TO WILTSHIRE

5% of the purchase price from each work sold will be given to charities within the Wiltshire community. These funds will be set aside and the total donated 3-4 times a year to emergency services, Hospice and animal shelters within the Wiltshire area. Details will be available on request.

As parcels are sent offshore it is impractical to return so please take the time to choose carefully as we do not exchange if you change your mind. Should your artwork be damaged or lost in transit please contact us as soon as possible so we can lodge an insurance claim.
