DEAR COLLECTOR,
When you are bidding on one of my images, you are actually bidding on hours and hours of preparation, prop and set creation, makeup/hair on set, actual shooting and careful post-processing. NEVER AI, NEVER anything added that was not shot with my camera.

"Drought" was created entirely in camera. The model was submerged in actual mud and had to wait until it dried so that cracks would be created. Bugs from Thailand were imported for the shoot. The figure represents our earth, a symbol for the environmental crisis of today. 

The artwork is a Giclee Fine Art piece in a limited edition of heavily textured, luxurious archival Hahnemuhle German Etching 310gsm Paper which lends the image a painterly effect, and lends the mud and and its cracks even more dimension!! It is printed using Epson SureColor P9570 (12-color UltraChrome Pro12 pigment inks) which is the industry gold standard for galleries and museums. Fade-resistant guarantee of over 100 years.

Image Dimensions are 40cmX60cm
Print Dimensions are 50cmX70cm 

CERTIFICATE OF AUTHENTICITY is included. All prints have my signature and edition number.

Please note that artwork displayed on wall is of various printing sizes.
