Sky City Express Print

Description

Sky City Express is a drawing of a rail line clinging to treacherous cliffs and soaring over tall bridges as it makes its way up to a city on a high tor.  A cat on the edge of a cliff watches a train steam slowly past.  I have loved trains for as long as I can remember, so I enjoyed trying to work one into to a cat-themed fantasy image.

The original drawing is done in Prismacolor colored pencils on 2-ply Bristol vellum.

Each Sky City Express print is hand signed and hand numbered out of a total run of 50.  Once they are sold out, no more will be run.  This is not a print I send out much anymore so if you want one it would be best to order it direct from me.

The print comes mounted in a 11″ x 14″ archival mat with backing board.  All of my prints are matted to standard frame sizes for ease of framing.

I cut my own mats.  The mat colors may vary depending on what I have in stock but I always pick something that compliments the artwork.  If you place an order and would like a specific mat color, send me a note and I will try to accommodate you.  For Sky City Express I usually use a double mat, with an inner border color and a different outer color.  Sometimes I use the same color for both the inner and outer mats.  This creates a different but equally appealing look.  The print itself is about 9″ x 7″, which leaves an approximate 2″ border on the sides and 2.5″ on the top and bottom.

Prints are protected by a clear plastic archival bag that guards against moisture and minor scratches.  I recommend leaving the print inside the bag until it is transferred to a frame.
