It was introduced into Britain at the end of the 19th century and into the South Island of New Zealand in the early 20th century.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMy sketches start life as hand-drawn graphite images made on cartridge paper. I often work on these with charcoal, oil pastel or Caran d'Ache to create the look I'm after. The artwork is then scanned and finessed digitally ready for fine art printing. This process often referred to as Giclée printing uses the highest standard of printing methods to give gallery quality results that maintain all the details of the original sketch.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe graphite pencils I use are Faber-Castel, the oil pastels are Sennelier and the china-graph is Caran d’Ache. The inks are pigment based archive quality (100years+). The heavyweight specialist papers I use are of the best professional quality having a wonderful surface designed specifically for fine art drawings and illustrations.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eVery limited editions with only ten per size printed.\u003cbr\u003eAll artwork is signed and includes a certificate of authenticity.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe A5 are 5.8\" x 8.25\" (14.8cm x 21cm)\u003cbr\u003eThe A4 are 8.25\" x 11.7\" (21cm x 29.8cm)\u003cbr\u003eThe A3 are 11.7\" x 16.5\" (29.8 cm x 42cm)\u003cbr\u003eThe A2 are 16.5\" x 23.4\" (42 cm x 59.4cm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFrames not included in price.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFree shipping on artwork to UK destinations.\u003c\/strong\u003e","brand":"Sean-Briggs-Art","offers":[{"title":"A5","offer_id":57420855280000,"sku":"Sketch 2920","price":25.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"A4","offer_id":57420855312768,"sku":"Sketch 2920","price":30.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"A3","offer_id":57420855345536,"sku":"Sketch 2920","price":40.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"A2","offer_id":57420855378304,"sku":"Sketch 2920","price":50.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0976\/1213\/6832\/files\/Little_owl1_d1d8170c-4f0b-41fe-8f7e-77e524ac8bf7.jpg?v=1771440396","url":"https:\/\/seanbriggs.co.uk\/products\/little-owl-4","provider":"Sean-Briggs-Art","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
