Surprise #1 - a new print! — SOLD OUT!
March 11, 2008
Finally! — Surprise #1!
I am very happy to announce this new print! Offered exclusively here through Penelope Illustration.
This piece was originally created for a gallery show, but it’s stayed close to my heart since the day I painted it. To me it represents strength and grace, even through difficult times… It was inspired by this quote I stumbled across (I can’t remember where):
“When I know that I am the ocean, I am not afraid of the waves.”
Isn’t that wonderful?
These a very, very limited edition at only 24. So get em’ while their hot. It will not be reprinted. :)
Here’s the nitty gritty:
“Ocean”
8×10″ (including border) archival print on acid-free Hahnemühle German Etching Paper.
Signed and numbered. Limited edition of 24.
Treated and sprayed for extra protection from dust and fading.
Comes in sealed celophane bag.

I wanted this one so bad so I ordered as soon as I saw it. I have been visualizing it in my room since I first saw it on your site for the gallery showing. Thanks for making it a print!!! I don’t favor her on the outside but I do on the inside and I can’t wait until she is hanging over my bed.
