Original artwork description:

The glorious hidden haven on Hampstead Heath for wild swimmers, under the soft end of day light of summer.
This is a one-off 'printed painting': I apply etching ink onto a perspex plate with roller, card and brush and wipe away with a cloth and other mark-making tools. Dampened Somerset paper is then placed over the plate which is pulled through the press, printing the image just once.

This will be mounted in acetate, flat-packed between board and shipped signed and tracked within four days.

Any questions, please don't hesitate to ask!

Materials used:

Somerset Velvet paper 300g, Intaglio printing inks, perspex plate, etching press
