Artwork description:

A dog barks at the moon. This nocturne is inspired by my own dog who ventures out every night to bark for anyone who will listen. This print is a multi-plate etching and aquatint and the richness of colour is very much a result of this process. The image is made on four copper plates, one printed over another and then another, the overprinting giving a much denser colour. It is hand-printed onto a heavyweight 300 gram handmade at St Cuthbert's Mill in Somerset, England and is in a limited edition of 75 and is signed and numbered by the artist. The image size is 15 x 20 cm on a paper size is 25 x 30 cm.
