This drawing is a part of my “Floating Head” series. I just really wanted to draw this vampire deer because he looks so strange and I’d never seen one before. Apparently they’re also known as Chinese water deer. I love drawing strange or funny animals and learning a little about them as I go.

All prints are limited edition (1 of 200) and printed on Canson^® Infinity Edition Etching Rag.

“Canson^® Infinity Edition Etching Rag is a 100% cotton Fine Art paper with a smooth texture, reminiscent of the original genuine etching and printmaking papers. The paper has the purest white tone available on the market, without any Optical Brightening Agents, also called OBAs. Optical Brightening Agents are artificial brighteners that deteriorate in time. Canson^® Edition Etching Rag offers a high paper shade stability and a resistance to aging by using natural minerals.

This museum-grade paper provides deep blacks, excellent image sharpness, optimum colour graduation and its unique slight grain makes it ideal for printing detailed work, colour photographs and exceptional black and white portraits.”

The printing is undertaken with specifically designed fine art ink and printers to create accurate colour replication and to ensure longevity.

If you have any other queries about the printing technique, paper quality or anything else please don’t hesitate to contact me and I will get back to you as soon as possible.
