Heavily gilded in 24k gold leaf limited edition giclée of the original Turkish and Egyptian styled watercolor illumination.
Each museum-quality illumination is made with bright archival water resistant inks on velvety smooth lightfast acid free pH neutral 100% α-cellulose German Etching paper by Hahnemühle who’s papers have been prized in European houses of nobility for centuries for their highest levels of craftsmanship and superb durability.
| Only 50 F.H. illuminations each of two sizes will be made from the original 2.5"x3.5" illumination. The tile that is is based on resides in the Leighton House Museum in London and was presented as inspiration in a class with Ayesha Gamiet. The origional tile had a different bird eating a snake. This is a fictional bird with a ribbon instead. I painted it when I had Covid-19. I was very dizzy at the time so was content to work very detailed in a small space. It was painted with hand-made watercolors gifted to me by a friend in Turkey. The name inspiration is from the Falcon Heavy rocket. © 2021 BKS |
