BLUE shipping HERON Watercolor Printed on SILK~Silk Anniversary Gift Great Blue Heron~

SILK GREAT BLUE HERON
This is a wonderful original design that has been printed onto 100% silk. This listing is for the SILK PRINT ONLY; framing depicted is for display only, to show you how it would look in a frame. This is pretty and decorative, unique and will truly please any lover of birds, particularly shorebirds & waders.

Sizeis 8.5 X 11". This includes a 1/4" white border all around for framing purposes. Openings of mats and frames are traditionally 1/2" smaller than the artwork. This silk print will come to you backed with an archival foam-core backing and in a plastic sleeve, ready to be matted and framed. The silk is paper-backed which allows it to be run through a printer. I leave this on as it keeps the fine silk nice and flat.

On the back is an additional page describing the piece, some info about the Great Blue Heron and a little bit about me as the designer and creator of this piece. A lovely, matching, greeting card is included.

My process begins with the creation of the original watercolor. I photograph the finished piece and put it onto the computer. I am then able to print it onto silk or watercolor paper, which I do myself. I am fortunate to have a fine printer in my studio that does a great job. The silk for this print is Habotai and takes the ink beautifully.

Shipping is free for this item.

I do like my customers to know that I donate fully 20% of the profit of my art sales to one of many non-profits. This particular piece will benefit my local Santa Cruz Native Animal Rescue. This is a wonderful organization dedicated to rescue and rehab of ALL creatures that come their way. They have helped me with a number of my own rescues; I am eternally grateful.

I really value my Etsy customers and you will not be disappointed with your purchase. All of my work is guaranteed and shipping I will refund or replace if you are ever dissatisfied. I have only had to refund one item, as it was delayed via the Post Office and missed the event date. The item was still delivered, albeit late, but the customer did not have to pay for it.

I do contact you once you order and state the estimated delivery date. Please review my note to you and let's discuss a few things. And be sure to check the delivery date. I can bump it up if necessary.
