Insect Studies — Ladybird

From £175

Print prices exclude postage, which is quoted once you have chosen a size and destination.

Insects are a precious, delicate part of our ecosystem. Their tasks go unseen, but vital in preserving life on our planet. Too many are missing, too many disappearing from our local woods, rivers, streams, moors and back gardens. These insect studies are part of a larger project called Crawl. A life's journey to see them, watch them and protect them. They are all around you — look up, look down, look around when you are out walking. Build them homes out of woodpiles, rock gardens and flowers.

Paper

Hahnemühle German Etching · Hahnemühle Digital FineArt Collection

A traditional mould-made copperplate printing paper which lends a textured dimension to the print. The brightness of the paper allows for crisp colour reproduction, high contrast and optimum colour saturation. A lovely tactile feel with a velvety edge, reflective of heritage etching papers.
