Artwork description:

Our Last Dream is a small lithographic plate of a landscape as viewed while passing by in a car. As I cleaned the ink off the plate the abstract qualities appealed to me almost more than the print.

This is the polyester litho plate from which a limited edition of two lithograph prints were printed, and no more are being produced from this particular image.

Once a print run is finished the plate itself is a reversed image of the prints. It often has marks and textures resulting from the printmaking process, which I particularly like as it adds the depth of the image. Polyester litho is a thin paper-like plate with a coating one side that resembles a stone surface and can be printed from using relief ink.

This original plate comes backed onto board with a window mount ready to frame.
