All prints are shipped flat and mounted.

The image itself measures approximately 206mm x 206mm (8.25" x 8.25").
The outer edge of the mount measures about 252mm x 252mm (10" x 10").

Each mount is signed by the artist on the back, and every print is carefully packaged in a protective cello wrap to ensure safe delivery.

Although every effort is made to accurately represent the true colours of each drawing, the colours of the prints may vary slightly. This variation is due to differences in screen or monitor calibration and is not the fault of the artist. Any minor colour variation should not be considered a printing error.

Shipping rates to these countries fluctuate frequently, and I’m unable to process orders until costs are confirmed.

Holding Hope - The Robin

 

In the far North, there is an old tale that tells of a time when the sun vanished from the sky, plunging the land into endless darkness. Snow and ice soon blanketed the earth, and all the animals began to suffer from the bitter cold.

 

But among them was one small, unremarkable brown bird. It had no grand feathers or mighty wings—just a fierce and fearless heart in its tiny chest. While the others shivered in despair, this little bird decided it would go in search of the missing sun.

 

So it set off, flying tirelessly through the frozen skies. The journey was long and exhausting, but at last, the bird found the great blazing sun. Yet the sun was far too vast and hot to carry home.

 

Thinking quickly, the bird picked up a stick and caught a tiny spark of sunlight on its tip. Clutching the stick in its beak, the bird began the long journey home.

 

But the spark burned hot and bright, and as the bird flew, the flame scorched its chest. By the time it returned to its frozen homeland, its breast feathers had turned a vivid red from the heat.

 

When the other animals saw the precious spark of sun that the little bird had brought, they rejoiced. Light and warmth returned, and with it, hope.

 

The bird—now known as the Robin—was filled with joy at the happiness he had brought to his friends. He chose to keep his red chest forever as a symbol of his brave deed.

 

From that day forward, the robin came to represent hope—a promise that even in the darkest winters, spring and sunlight would return.
