Weta - an open edition Nocturne Print

This beautiful creature is a West Coast Bush Weta. IT is part of my ever expanding Preludes and Nocturnes series that explores the diversity of our native species.
The image that I worked from for this illustration was one of a specimen that Buller provided in 1896. It is like a cross between a Giant weta and a tree weta. 
Weta were the source of much entertainment growing up. I will be writing a blog post about this soon :)

It has been professionally printed using archival inks on Hahnemuhle William Turner 310gms cotton rag paper. This particular paper is just gorgeous, it has the appearance of water-colour paper and has been specifically created for longevity when used with pigmented inks. Because of this the darker have a wonderful velvety appearance.

Your treasure will be shipped to you carefully encased in cellophane (you can put this in your compost) and posted within a sturdy reinforced envelope to prevent it from being damaged in the post. A2 is printed to order and will be carefully encased in a sturdy tube or box.
