Questions
Frequently asked
Are these hand-drawn?
No. Each artwork is digitally created in a hyperrealistic graphite style from wildlife photography, then goes through extensive human editing: composition, tone and contrast are reworked and the eyes, fur and light refined by hand, piece by piece. Only the best designs are selected and test-printed. Each one is printed on archival fine-art paper so it looks and feels like a pencil drawing.
What paper do you print on?
280gsm bright white archival matte fine-art paper, with a soft, natural finish that suits graphite tones.
What sizes are available?
A4 (21 × 30 cm), A3 (30 × 42 cm), A2 (42 × 59 cm), A1 (59 × 84 cm) and A0 (84 × 119 cm). Framing is available for A4 to A2; for a framed A1 or A0, contact us for a quote.
What do the frames look like?
A modern 30mm black or white frame with a white mount and glass, ready to hang. The frame is larger than the print size because of the mount.
How long does delivery take?
Unframed: 3–5 working days to dispatch. Framed: 7–9 working days. Then 1–4 working days by courier.
How much is delivery?
