![]() Title: "Hopper in the Dark" (Grasshopper) ARTIST'S STATEMENT This is one of the many types of grasshoppers found in my back yard. Abundantly found in grassy places like along the river bank or around the edges of the parks and sports fields. As you walk along the grasses suddenly spring to life in front of your feet. Grasses camouflage, Tightly wound projectiles spring passing stride awaken. As most residents and business people go about their daily routine they are often oblivious to what they would consider irrelevancies around them. These creatures, although often unobserved by all that pass, captured my interest and fascination. They were not chosen as subjects because they were exotic nor endangered but simply because they were part of my every day life. I attempt to explore and display the beauty of colours, pattern and shapes of some of the familiar creatures within my own environment. Each creature is presented with an air of importance. Their forms are large and dominating within the artwork ensuring they are no longer overlooked. I present a realistic depiction making them easily identifiable. They’re produced in an attempt to create a wider environmental awareness. ORIGINAL ARTIST PRINTS Printed on high quality 240gm 100% cotton, acid-free, archival, fine art paper. A3 size (29.7 x 42cm). These prints are the artwork's original physical form, NOT reproductions. This original art work was created digitally, through painting by hand with an electronic pen on a digital drawing tablet, directly with a computer. The process of creating an art image digitally restricts the physical presentation of the artwork to printed form. So like wood blocks, etchings, screen printing and photography, it is not possible to have any other physical representation. Each print comes with a signed certificate of Authenticity directly from the artist along with a written artist statement about the image that you are purchasing. MATERIAL QUALITY Includes a signed certificate of authenticity which incorporates an artist statement, along with a short artist bio and an information sheet about preserving art on paper. Posted flat, sandwiched between thick cardboard so that it will NOT be rolled or creased. View our eBay information guide about how to care for and preserve artwork on paper!
