Wren Art Print, Signed Limited Edition Watercolor

A wren on a fence post with its tail cocked straight up, which is how you know a wren at any distance. The bird is painted in brown, rust and a little teal with the barring of the wing drawn in, the post in grey and ochre, and behind it are yellow and pink washes with splatter. It is a portrait format and one of the quieter garden birds in the shop, often bought for a kitchen or a hallway.

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
• Framed canvas options in a black wooden frame, ready to hang
• 15 sizes, from 8 x 10 in (20 x 26 cm) to 40 x 55 in (100 x 140 cm)

The frame is not included unless the option says Framed Canvas. Not sure which size fits your wall? Write to me with the width of the furniture under it and I will suggest one. Reproduction rights remain with the artist.
