Artwork description:
A new addition to my space art collection, this is a wood engraving inspired by an image by astrophysicist and black hole specialist Jean-Pierre Luminet in the 1970s.
Using a specialist tool, I cut literally thousands of tiny dots out of a piece of maple wood, which took several days and caused blisters, but the stippling effect was worth it to create this image of a black hole.
This image has been hand printed on handmade Japanese Awagami Hosho paper (made from Mulberry trees), using Caligo Safewash inks.
PLEASE NOTE - This print is being sold unframed, one of the photos shows a framed version that is going into an exhibition, just to show what it looks like in a 10"x8" frame.
DELIVERY INFORMATION
In order to avoid trips to the Post Office, I shall be arranging for delivery to be via courier (not Hermes!) and shipping charges will reflect this. As prices will vary depending on the purchaser's location, if the actual shipping price is less than that charged, I will refund the difference. I am happy to arrange collection.
The high cost of shipping from the UK to the USA is, unfortunately, out of my hands and I won't cut corners by using the cheapest courier or not having insurance as that will just be tempting fate!
IMPORTANT - Rather sadly I've decided that, following Brexit, I can no longer sell my artwork to purchasers in the EU. The customs/VAT regulations are an absolute nightmare and I don't want to risk purchasers having to fork out a lot of unforeseen extra money when taking delivery, and even if I agree to pay Customs and VAT upfront before sending out, the red tape involved just looks horrendous.
I will still be selling to customers outside the EU as there's been no changes there so everything remains the same. My apologies, all I can say is that I voted to remain.
For international buyers please note that import duties, taxes and charges are not included in the price of this artwork or shipping costs. These charges are the buyer's responsibility.
