Artwork description:

Lovely Magpies and a full Moon
this is an aquatint etching, handprinted by me, the artist, with the best etching inks and on a really beautiful piece of white printmaking paper. An etching is a handmade print, from a copperplate made by the artist, to the inking up by the artist, inking has to be done for each and every print, every step of the process involves the artist, which is why etchings are known as Original Prints.
This print is printed in black, and I have handcolored details, like the Moon and the birds in water color, it is one of only 3 prints left.

The beautiful velvety printmaking paper measures
17" x 9" (43cm x 24 cm) and the copperplate, the actual image,
measures 14" x 6",(35 cm x 15 cm )

I sign, title and number each print. This print is an Artists Proof A/P
This etching is printed in a limited edition of 60 prints, this means that once the edition is finished, I scratch the copperplate, ensuring that it can't be printed from again.
You do receive this very print as it is one of 3 last prints I have.

I mail your etching with many years experience in packing my art so it arrives sfely, see my reviews.
Thanks for visiting my shop and welcome back,
Mariann
