As with all my prints 'Winter Westerly' is set in a real place. The original sketch (pictured) was done at a popular spot in the Swinley Forest by the pill boxes in an area called Bagshot Heath. It is on top of a hill, overlooked by a huge communications mast. The area is relatively clear but features lots of immature silver birch trees, heather, bracken and grasses.
My prints are all made by hand, each layer of each print is individually inked and pressed therefore there are individual variations within each edition. Every print is a unique and original work of art.
Framing
This paper has a beautiful deckled edge, consider float mounting it to show this off.
