Remains of the day
Remains of the day. Still Life Spring 2024.
Poppies ‘Colibri’ the sought after Italian bred poppy. Long stems picked from the garden and placed in the little blue jug, I walked away and waited, not to capture their peak but to observe their quiet collapse, the slow folding inward, the tender unravelling. Petals softened into semi translucent silk skirts, curling like aged parchment. The apricot hues fading to bruised faded rusts and pinks that remind me of old crumbling buildings in Italy. This image is not about the bloom but the after. A still life shaped by time, where memory, impermanence and the dignity of fading are held in quiet balance. A meditation of what remains. The remains of the day.
Inspired by the Dutch Masters floral paintings but reimagined through a contemporary lens.

The Print and the Paper
Printing: Giclée Archival Inkjet Print
Paper: Fine Art Etching Cotton Rag 330gsm Matte
Your artwork will be printed on premium Fine Art Etching Cotton rag paper, this is museum quality for highest age resistance. It will be rolled in a tube and shipped directly to you from the printers and include a signed certificate of authentication. Please ask your framer to attach this to the back of the frame. All prints come unframed with a 10mm white handling border. The paper gives muted blacks an even colour reproduction, and excellent detail. The surface has minimal texture with a chalky smooth cotton feel. It has a delicate surface so we recommend extra care when handling, I strongly advise not opening the tube but give directly to your framer to handle, they will use special gloves to avoid finger prints and be working in a space that protects the paper. Your artwork is an investment and very precious so I recommend asking your framer to use a protective non-reflective artglass with a UV filter, this will greatly reduce any potential fading. I recommend either UV70 or museum glass.
