Original drawing 'Moon hares' ~ SOLD

Artist's proof of 'Majesty' ~ AUCTION ENDED
PROFITS FROM THIS AUCTION TO BORN FREE FOUNDATION
Online auction providing a one-off opportunity to own a unique piece of artwork - a framed 'artist's proof' of my soft pastel painting, ' Majesty'. An 'artist's proof' is a print of the original work that the artist receives from the printers to check that the colour balancing is correct, before the piece is further reproduced (e.g. as a limited edition, numbered print, or greeting card). As an artist's proof, I have assigned the letters 'A/P' in the bottom left border and hand-signed it in the bottom right border. The print itself is giclee printing on museum quality Hahnemulhe German Etching 310gsm paper and is smaller than the original chalk pastel piece at approximately 7.5" x 10.5". The print is set in a single black mount in a brushed bronze frame, and the overall size is approximately 13" x 16.5".
The auction for this piece will take place on facebook, starting at 9am GMT on Monday 19th November 2012 and will run for two weeks, ending at 6pm GMT on Sunday 2nd December 2012. Bidding will start at £35.00 (to cover my framing costs). Whatever amount the piece raises after costs will be donated to Born Free Foundation. (N.B. Postage costs are not included and will be added to the winning bidder's bid.)
THIS AUCTION IS NOW CLOSED! The print raised a profit of £65.00 for Born Free Foundation.
