For Beauty & Truth No. 02 / Limited Edition Print
For Beauty & Truth is an ongoing explorational series of limited edition, fine art botanical prints. Each print serves as a beautiful reminder that death is not the opposite of life, but the counterpart to birth. Everything must have its end, or there is no beginning. I wish to convey a sense of beauty, truth, and serenity through this botanical series.
“Death is the end of ephemeral life and the beginning of an infinite, eternal life” - Debasish Mridha
For Beauty & Truth No. 02 is printed on heavyweight (315gsm) museum-grade, archival cotton rag photo paper with archival pigment inks that will resist fading for hundreds of years with proper care. The pure cotton paper features substantial thickness and a beautiful luster finish resulting in outstanding reproduction of color, detail, and deep blacks.
Each print is made-to-order, printed, hand-cut, and shipped from my studio on the coast of Maine. Limited Edition prints
are signed and numbered, and include a Certificate of Authenticity. I recommend framing your print and placing the certificate in the back of the framed artwork in an envelope. Frame not included.

I highly encourage framing your artwork! The perfect frame will not only protect your art, but it will enhance the artwork, giving it an even more beautiful presence in your space. I recommend framing your print with a 2.5" mat or larger.

Due to the delicate nature, please handle the print only by its edges and refrain from touching the surface when possible.
