Original Etching - Spring, Two Finches

Two little red-browed finches sit on a branch at the beginning of spring. I met this pair a couple of years ago in a fruit tree in my neighbours garden and snapped a photo of them for inspiration. 

You can watch videos of my process making this piece in my instagram account.

This is an original dry point etching, inked up by hand and pulled through my printing press on Hahnemulhe cotton rag paper. Colour is added to the plate during inking up in a process called a la poupee or dolly printing. Each number in the edition is inked up separately so slight variations may occur. 

This etching is sold unframed and unmatted.  Please note, the edition number you will receive will not necessarily be the one pictured.
