Original artwork description:

This Work celebrates a voyage of discovery and place of our Earth in the heavens.

Laced with symbolism ‘Guardian’ is an extra bit special featuring a magnificent golden eagle drawn in Indian ink representing our hunt for answers to the ultimate questions of our origins and place in the heavens. The night sky is painted as a celestial globe from the 16th century showing our understanding of the earth then.

Painted on a specially prepared canvas in artists watercolour and adorned with 23k gold leaf...a tricky thing to get quite right but the effect? Spectacular.

When we stop and look a little closer at details light a whole new world of wonder is there before us.

Offered ready to hang on a 2cm deep canvas, this work will be shipped in a robust cardboard box.

Enjoy!

Materials used:

Winsor and Newton and Daniel Smith artists watercolours, 23k gold leaf
