Reduction linocut, 3 colours. Orange, red, dark burgundy. An orange cat reclines under a red xmas tree, curled around a gift. Maybe, visions of sugarmice dance in his head.

A copper etching depicting a seal's head surfacing from below ice. An ice mummy is partially visible at the top of the frame.
