For Beauty & Truth No. 01
"For Beauty & Truth No. 01" is a limited edition fine art moody botanical print encapsulating an intimate moment of roses just as they began to wither, a phase often overlooked yet brimming with beauty.
Printed on heavyweight, acid-free, archival cotton rag photo paper, this 100% cotton paper boasts both substantial thickness and a beautiful luster finish, resulting in outstanding color reproduction, intricate detail, and deep blacks. High-quality archival pigment inks are used to ensure vibrant and fade-resistant colors. With appropriate care, the original quality can be retained for centuries.
Limited Edition prints are made-to-order, meticulously printed, hand-cut, and shipped from my studio in Maine within 1-2 weeks.

As the edition runs low, pricing may increase due to the limited nature of the print.
Each print is individually signed and numbered, and accompanied by a Certificate of Authenticity. I recommend framing your print and enclosing the certificate in an envelope, placed behind the framed artwork. Frame not included.
Framing
I highly encourage framing your print! Not only will this protect the print, but it will also enhance the artwork, giving it an even more beautiful presence in your space. For an 8.5x11 print, I typically recommend framing with a 2.5" mat. For larger pieces, a frame with a 3" mat would be fitting.
Please Note
The photos featured in this listing are for illustrative purposes only and may not be to scale.
The colors displayed on your monitor may slightly differ from those on the artwork due to potential variations in monitor settings.
Print sizing refers to the actual paper size. Each print includes a white border ranging from .25" to 1.25", so some cropping may occur, depending on the print size.
Given the delicate nature of the print, please handle only by its edges and refrain from touching the surface when possible.
All sales are final.
