Looking for a gum tree

Significance of the artwork:

This artwork shows us how far we can reach when we need it.

It also speaks about the need to preserve nature, our environment.

Description:

Koalas, whose Latin name means ash-color bear with bag, are one of the most charismatic Australian icons. To most of the people, they arouse feelings of tenderness. However, they are considered a vulnerable species throughout Australia, due to the loss of ecosystem and diseases. Every time they find more difficulties to find food. I wish we could help the recovery of this species in other forests outside Australia, but its autochthonous diet based on eucalyptus leaves limits our options.

Media selection (paper finish)

Satin – artist’s recommendation (Baryta & Platine)

For this artwork, the artist prefers a satin finish paper: Canson Infinity Platine Fibre Rag 310 gsm (Palace Edition) and Baryta Photographique 310 gsm (rest of editions), which provide a photo-realistic appearance, with deeper blacks and higher contrast than a matte paper

Matte – optionally (Edition Etching)

Looking for a gum tree looks beautiful both in a satin and a matte paper. A matte finish paper will provide a more pictorial look to this artwork. Although for this image this paper finish is not the artist’s preferred option, the appearance of this artwork using a matte paper is also undoubtedly good. If you are looking for a softer and more poetical look, or you are not very fan of satin papers, then go for this option. We will use Canson Infinity Edition Etching Rag 310 gsm, a slightly textured matte paper.
