The Gift #21

$125.00

Aquatint, hard ground etching on BFK Rives 250gsm paper.

Image size: 8" x 10", Paper size: 11" x 14".

Limited edition of 11, 2021. Signed and numbered in pencil.

This print is inspired by Patrick McDonnell's book "The Gift of Nothing." What do you give someone who already has everything? The surprising answer was nothing, at least nothing tangible. So this print was intentionally meant to be vague - an empty gift box. What was the gift? What will be the gift? Was this the giver? Or the receiver? What's the story?? I guess only the viewer will know. =)

The box was hand-drawn, then traced and etched onto a copperplate for printing.

Print only, frame not included.
