First Light (Heron) - Signed limited edition fine art print A heron holds still in a wide field of open paper, waiting the way herons wait. The bare space around it does as much work as the bird, giving it room to breathe and you room to look. The Egyptians linked the heron to the rising sun and to the first light of morning, which is where the painting takes its name. It's a quiet picture for a quiet wall, the kind that rewards a long look rather than a passing glance. The print is made by hand from the original watercolour on natural white velvet fine art paper, with a soft matte finish that holds the stillness and open space of the painting. Signed and numbered before it leaves the studio. Only 25 exist in this size, and once they sell out this version won't be printed again.
