This bass was caught on a line by a local fisherman here in North Wales.  It was caught on the Menai Stait.

Bass are my favourite fish to print the definition you get on the scales is wonderful. This bass is printed on Thai mulberry paper measuring 69.5x34cm.

Printing is just the first part of the process.  After printing, the paper is cockled and wouldn’t lay flat in a frame.  To achieve a flat print I use the traditional wet mounting process that has been used in the east for centuries.  This process takes 24hours.

When it is flattened, I sign the print and stamp it with my Hanko.  

The print is unique no two prints are ever the same.  It will be sent unmounted and unframed.  It will be rolled in a poster tube and protected with acid free tissue paper.  

Shipping to the UK is free.  If you are interested in having the print framed and mount please send me a message.
