Tidal 5 (turquoise)

This unique piece captures the moon's reflection over a peaceful sea. Crafted on high-quality Somerset cotton paper, this one-of-a-kind collagraph/carbarundum print is carefully made with premium Caligo inks. This is an exclusive edition limited to just 40 prints.

A collagraph is a technique where materials such as paper, tape and fabric are applied to a printing plate. In this print, carbarundum, a coarse powder, has been combined with other materials to create dark areas. The final plate is then inked and printed with an etching printing press.

In the traditional way, each print is signed by the artist, with title and edition details in pencil (If you would prefer the title and edition details on the back of the print then please send a message when ordering)

The prints are hand printed. There may be slight variations between prints. This is a normal quality that is a result of the hand printmaking process, making each print unique and special.

There are three purchase options:
Please note, due to possible damage when shipping to international destinations, fully framed options are only available to UK customers.

- Unframed. Image size 13 x 24.5 cm paper size 20 x 32.5 cm
- With a A3 (29.5 x 42 cm) soft white, thick acid free mount
- Framed in A3 high quality glass fronted black or white wooden art frame, with a thick soft white acid free mount (see photographs for details)

Collagraph printing can be varied due to the printing process. Every effort is made to ensure the colours and tone in the photographs are as close to the actual prints as possible, however slight variations may be apparent due to lighting both when being photographed and when a print is hanging in its final location. Colour saturation on a device screen may also affect contrast and/or colour.
