Artwork description:

I live in Cadiz province in the Andalucia region of southern Spain. This is an area famous for its strong equine culture and I depict the horse in many of my works. In this print, a horse woman is pictured resting below the shade of an umbrella pine tree. She wears a sombrero but the tree is the real 'sombrero' giving shade to both the rider and the horse.

This print is an etching and aquatint drawn on a copper plate. It is printed on Somerset Velvet, an off-white heavyweight 300 gsm handmade paper from St Cuthbert's Mill in Somerset. The image size is 15 x 20 cm on a paper size of 25 x 30 cm.
