The Studio of John Freeman - watercolour artist in Whitby, North Yorkshire

Winter Darnholm
Limited Edition Print

Limited edition print of 500. Size: 14" x 10"

This is a tiny hamlet nestling in the deep valley of Eller Beck. Just a short walk from the main village of Goathland it is a perfect family 'discovery'! Countless holidaying families will have had picnics on the beck's banks whilst their children fish in the shallow waters.

This study is based on the reminiscences of one such family who visited sumer and winter and even recalled the sight and sounds of the passing stream trains.

Like many other parts of the North Yorkshire moors, it has in the past been the home to industry. A fulling mill once occupied the valley bottom, with the cloth it produced on the hillsides to be bleached by the sun. Mining both coal and iron and agriculture also shaped the valley. A further claim to fame is that the artist's beloved springer "Spot" was born here.

The editions are signed and numbered by the artist, the print employs a revolutionary new technique which is set to transform the fine art printing world. The combination of new inkjet printers and inks using pigmented ink rather than dye-based inks has brought together high detail and resolution with that other vital attribute - permanency. The light fastness achieved using this combination of inks and specially developed fine are water colour papers such as the Albrecht Durer paper used here will give this print an estimated lifespan of 100 years. Visually the print is very close to the original painting in colour, tone and texture. No print or painting will benefit from haniging in the sunlight.
