Sometimes less is more. (Sometimes.) And for those familiar with my more highly detailed pen and ink artwork, this piece might come as something of a surprise. Designed as a companion with the Leopard image, these were an experimental move in a different direction, trying for a purely high-graphic representation of animals with distincive marking patterns. Note that, aside from a single line outline on the figure, it is only the patterning, or lack of same, that is used to define the interior form of this intensely staring tiger.
--Info on the printing process, plus care & feeding instructions--
This is an open-edition print, created from a film negative made directly from the original pen and ink artwork, then retouched by the artist, and printed by offset lithography on Mountie Matt paper stock. Mounting and matting materials are either low-acid or acid-free. To maintain the quality of this work, do not display it where it will be exposed to direct sunlight for extended periods, or to extremes of temperature or humidity. I also recommend that you look at it once it is up on your wall (at least six times a week is considered the minimum), or else it will get sad and lonely, and the tear-stains will make it look less attractive.
