Hope is the thing, Black and White Fine Art Print

The subject of this image is a very tiny down feather shed by one of the local crows. I saw if floating as I was putting out the bins one day and intended to walk past it and get back to work, but it "followed" me back through the garden gate, so I took that as a sign to defer "work" for a while and instead spend some time exploring the intricacies of my tiny feather visitor.

The title comes from Emily Dickinson's poem: 
Hope is the the thing with feathers
That perches on the soul,
And sings the tune without the words,
And never stops at all,

Minimalist Illustrations for Corvid Lovers

This fine art poster-sized print is one of a series of bold and minimalist illustrations highlighting the movement and built-in poetry of birds. This series explores the meeting of different types of language: nature's simple beauty (and what it can tell us if we listen), typography, and calligraphy.

Poster-Sized, Museum-Quality Black and White Art

MUSEUM-QUALITY
Each museum-quality print is made by the artist using archival inks on acid-free, 100% cotton rag, museum-quality paper with a bright white, slightly textured finish.

SIGNED PRINTS
The artist signs each print.

FRAMING OPTIONS
The prints are beautiful enough to be professionally framed — and substantial enough for a minimalist display created by hanging the work from small binder clips.

The weight of the paper is similar to that of business cards (202lb, for the technically minded.)

SIZING
Please note that the size of these prints refers to the entire print.

A 16x20-inch print will measure 16x20 inches edge to edge and will fit, untrimmed, in a 16x20-inch poster frame.

METICULOUS PACKAGING
Each print will be meticulously packaged to ensure it arrives in perfect condition. Smaller prints will be packaged flat in an acid-free cellophane bag, sandwiched between foam core inside a rigid envelope. The large prints will be packaged inside a large, heavy-duty mailing tube.  

MORE INFO
We ship worldwide.  Find out more HERE.
Note: Because, of customs rules and charges in the UK and EU, customers from those areas will need to contact me directly so we can arrange to make the sale from my Etsy shop.
