Artwork description:

Mother and child, an eternal theme for us artists, and is there anything more joyful than little lambs and green meadows.

a handprinted aquatint etching; I ink up the copperplate for each print pulled, this means that each print will have small differences to the next. I hope you treasure this as a sign of individuality and part of what makes an original print an original. I use first class papers and ink to give my work the best possible longevity.
Aquatint is a technique where deep tones can be achieved on an etching, it involves rosin, that gets melted onto the copperplate with the help of a burner.

"Meadow" is printed in an edition of only 45 prints,please be aware that I can't guarantee that you get the number on the photo......
Each print is numbered, titled and signed by me.

This etching is printed on a piece of warm white heavy printmaking paper, perfect for the image,
the paper measures 10" x 14" (25 cm x 34 cm )
and the actual image measures 6" x 6" (16cm x 16 cm)

I'll mail your etching with many years experience in packing my art so it arrives safely, see my happy reviews!

Thank you for looking in my shop and very welcome back!
