Good Morning,

Today's list comes from five different shops on The CraftStar.

Print, Black and White Scarab beetle from original Pen drawing

Print of an original pen drawing. This drawing took several days to complete and was created when working long hours (10-12 hr days) and was a means to unwind after such a long days.

I scanned the completed picture just after it was completed, fortunately so as the original is now damaged and unsellable. Although I'm inclined to think that the print has turned out much better than the original.

Paper dimensions 440 mm x 320mm ( 17 1/4 x 12 1/2") Scarab size, 31mm x 22mm (12 1/4 x 8 3/4") The print is printed on 190 gsm acid free Watercolour paper with pigment inks. Provided the print is not placed in direct sunlight, the lifetime of this print is approx. 120-150 yrs.

The print is signed and dated and is sold unframed.
