Haiti Relief through Art

by Cloudery

Small Forest Print

Small Forest - Hope For Haiti Now
Small Forest (detail)
Cloudery is now selling an 8 x 10 giclee print of Small Forest in the Etsy shop — $7 from each print (50% of the proceeds) will go to Hope For Haiti Now. The image size is just under 5 x 5 inches on the 8 x 10 page.

Professionally printed by Wall Blank (who has generously donated part of the printing fee to the cause) on Epson Velvet Fine Art Paper, 100% Cotton Rag, Acid Free Base, 260gsm (lightfastness rated at 61 years). The paper is heavy with a slight texture, much like the watercolor paper the original is drawn on; the blacks are super black; this is a beautiful reproduction.

8 of these prints are available in this first printing (currently 5 are still available). Click here for more information. Also available: Upgrade your print so it’s ready-to-hang — the print will be mounted on a 6 x 6 inch Plywerk panel (this makes it the size of the original drawing). Read more about Plywerk in this post from November. Contact me through Etsy for more details on this Plywerk upgrade.
