Artwork description:

As I struggled in the river at Quennington, installing some hanging and standing glass sculptures for the Quennington Biennial some years back, this swan came to investigate. I photographed it then, and have finally used that photograph as a subject whilst exploring just what I can do within the 'crushed glass' approach to painting that now so enthuses me. There's a photo of the encounter here!

This work is brand-new, created in my woodland studio in 2018. It's one of a new, original, limited edition of just 18, printed in museum archival-quality pigmented inks on acid-free, UV-resistant canvas, ready to hang. It's signed and numbered on the front, and comes in addition with a formal certificate of authenticity.

Materials used:

Pigmented inks, acid-free and UV-resistant canvas and board
