Description
This is an original block print. It is block printed by hand using a hand-carved stamp. This print consists of more than 15 individual stamp impressions. For each impression the respective stamp is inked in one of the two shades of blue & is aligned by hand on the thick mount board to generate the print. DETAILS: Dimensions: Cardboard size = 15x21 cm approx. (DIN A5, 5.9x8.3 inch approx.); printed area = cardboard size (printed right to the edge) Paper: white 1090 gsm mount board, 1.5 mm thick (acid free, without optical brightness additives, optimum age resistance) Ink: vibrant fade resistant pigment inks . Each print is handmade & unique. Due to the nature of the block printing process (with > 15 individual impressions of the stamps, all carefully positioned & printed one after the other by hand) there might be slight variations & imperfections in the prints different to the prints pictured here. These variations make each of the prints unique & are completely natural to the block printing process. As the mount board is cut by hand, very slight variations in size may appear. All prints are signed on the back by the artist (aka me). These prints are part of an open edition. Sold unframed. This listing is for one block print. Stamps & carving tools not included. The color may differ slightly from the original color due to different monitor settings. For shipping, the print will be carefully packaged with sturdy cardboard backing & a strong cardboard envelope in order to prevent damage during the shipping process. Please note that I am taking the effort to minimize the use of plastic in my packaging. Another whale sharks print is also available, printed on square paper in shades of blue.
