A Percheron head, the big grey draft horse of France, painted almost entirely as bare paper with turquoise, lilac and gold in the mane and the shadows, and a cloud of yellow, pink, orange and blue splashes around it that run down in drips. The eye and the nostrils are the only dark marks. It is a portrait format and the softest of my horses.
The original watercolor painting is listed separately: see the original Percheron horse painting.
Why it is a limited edition
Each print is made in an edition of 150, and I sign and number every copy in pencil under the image. The edition is small so that every copy can be made properly: the file is scanned from the painting itself, printed on museum-quality cotton paper with archival pigment inks, compared with the original in daylight and corrected until the colours match, and only then signed. When the last copy is sold, the edition closes for good.
Paper, inks and sizes
- Archival pigment inks on acid-free, museum-quality watercolor paper, so the texture of the original is kept
