Description: Hand-produced, tri-coloured screen print on linen rag paper, entitled "Eagle"[SM 18/03/2008]
Long description: Hand-produced, tri-coloured screen print on linen rag paper, entitled "Eagle". The print is of an eagle, however, the depiction of the whole creature in such a limited space means that much altering of proportion takes place. Here, the artist has shortened the beak and the lower-body of the eagle in order to retain the design's symmetry. [SM 18/03/2008]
