Original artwork description:

Red deer

The red deer is one of the largest deer species. A male red deer is called a stag or hart, and a female is called a hind. The red deer inhabits most of Europe, the Caucasus Mountains region, Anatolia, Iran, and parts of western Asia.

My sketches start life as hand drawn graphite images made on cartridge paper. I often work on these with charcoal, oil pastel or Caran d'Ache to create the look I'm after. The artwork is then scanned and finessed digitally ready for fine art printing. This process often referred to as Giclée printing uses the highest standard of printing methods to give gallery quality results that maintain all the details of the original sketch.

Here on Artfinder I produce one off original artworks even though the final output is a Giclée print it is the only one I produce and is therefore unique.

The graphite pencils I use are Faber-Castel, the oil pastels are Sennelier and the china-graph is Caran d’Ache. The inks are pigment based archive quality (100years+). The heavy weight specialist papers I use are of the best professional quality having a wonderful surface designed specifically for fine art drawings and illustrations.

I include a signed certificate of authenticity with each artwork.
