Artwork description:

This image is from the 2013 Notting Hill Carnival in London.
I love going to this massive street festival - one of the largest in Europe. It's an annual event happening on the end of August bank holiday weekend. It's now been running for over 50 years and attracts over a million people over two days. As well as the carnival parade there are a myriad of street food stands and temporary bars everywhere and people are dancing in the streets.

Also available in other sizes:
42x59cm - edition of 50

Beautifully Giclée printed on Hahnemuhle Pearl paper - a slightly textured 285 gsm. semi-gloss paper which holds more detail with punchier colours than a matt paper, whilst maintaining a illustrative/ painted feel.

Technology: Epson UltraChrome HDR Wide Gamut Inks with archival life expectancy: 40 years daylight, 200 years in dark.

All prints are professionally printed to ensure the absolute best quality and consistency. I pride myself in strict quality control, hence I only use top professional printers based here in London, that I am content use very strict colour consistency checks and use the very best of printing techniques available. This of course greatly increases production costs, but give me and my customers the peace of mind that I deliver a supreme quality artwork.

Materials used:

Hahnemuhle Pearl - 285 gsm. semi-gloss finish.
