Artwork description:

Spotted this smartly dressed business man reading his paper while waiting for the train at Darjeeling Railway Station. I really like this capture as a snapshot in time as it's such an universal situation around the world where people have to rely on public transport to get them to and from work. And as if in our own small bubbles, in a busy place we often concentrate on reading books or papers or watching something on a phone or tablet, maybe playing games, instead of looking around us and taking in our surroundings.

Also available in other sizes:
84x119cm - edition of 25

Beautifully Giclée printed on Hahnemuhle Pearl paper - a slightly textured 285 gsm. semi-gloss paper which holds more detail with punchier colours than a matt paper, whilst maintaining a illustrative/ painted feel.

Technology: Epson UltraChrome HDR Wide Gamut Inks with archival life expectancy: 40 years daylight, 200 years in dark.

All prints are professionally printed to ensure the absolute best quality and consistency. I pride myself in strict quality control, hence I only use top professional printers based here in London, that I am content use very strict colour consistency checks and use the very best of printing techniques available. This of course greatly increases production costs, but give me and my customers the peace of mind that I deliver a supreme quality artwork.

Materials used:

Hahnemuhle Pearl - 285 gsm. semi-gloss finish.
