Hedgehog

This Hedgehog painting is in a signature style of mine.

I used a traditional Brush and nib based pen and high quality lightfast inks on hand-made watercolour paper with an abstracted background.

This has been painted in Acrylic inks on specialist Two Rivers hand pressed 300GSM paper. 

With this style of artwork I create the background ink study first and then looking at the abstract I decide on how best to incorporate an animal, bird or insect into the spaces available. Rather like looking at clouds, I let the composition of the abstract dictate the outcome. 

It is painted in a soft Dove Grey and Dark Grey and is accentuated by the carefully selected frame. The mount is a specialist deep one in soft white. The colour of the frame is grey blue with a tiny nod towards purple.

Easily posted UK and abroad and will come with tape across the glass for protection.
