Original artwork description:

This mixed media Ink and Acrylic on Paper Diptych was completed over four years as I slowly built it up and created other pieces. I really like the chance to step away from a piece and come back to it after I have had time to consider how I want it to develop. This is a combination of subject and materials that I like to use and it began with an “en plein air” drawing done in my local Yu Cheng Park in the summer of 2015. I would always pass this corner of the park and stare at the amazing trees and roots and also liked how the steps cut across the scene and the white shelters in background added another dimension. So after the initial drawing I worked from photos in my studio, slowly adding many thin layers of Acrylic Paint to build up the colours. After this I drew over the image again in Ink to redefine the shapes, shades and shadows. It is a very slow process to build up the details in this way, but I really like how it allows me to carefully control each layer of shade and I think it adds more to the finished piece than a basic drawing or painting.

Shipping rates have increased in price all around the world due to Covid and other complications. Due to this I have had to increase the the cost of shipping my artworks in line with the Delivery Companies. I will always strive to find the cheapest possible option for the customer (usually my local POST OFFICE EMS Recorded Delivery, but unfortunately they don’t deliver worldwide at the moment) If the amount of shipping charged at purchase is less than the shipping company charges then I will refund the difference to the customer. This refund will be done after the picture has arrived safely and has been accepted.
