Artwork description:

“Oh the starving Winter-lapse!
Ice-bound, hunger-pinched and dim;
Dormant roots recall their saps,
Empty nests show black and grim,
Short-lived sunshine gives no heat,
Undue buds are nipped by frost,
Snow sets forth a winding-sheet,
And all hope of life seems lost.”
― Christina Rossetti, Seasons

This limited edition artwork is one in a four part series bringing a visual life to Christina Rossetti's poem, 'Seasons'.

Rossetti's beautifully written poem is broken into four stanzas, one for each season. Using a technique that merges my background of traditional illustration with digital art, each artwork is bordered with the words from the stanza that inspired it.

Printed on a 190gsm fine art paper, these 12x12'' prints have a rich textured quality with a lasting archival finish.

Each print is signed and numbered on the front and sealed and shipped in a strong postal tube.

Materials used:

190gsm Texturned Fine Art Paper
