Details: Polar Bear Swimming was first drawn as a poster for Greenpeace in 1990. As Gary's limited edition prints became very popular in the 1990s he decided to reproduce the image on the same fine art paper he uses for his limited editions. He felt it was unethical to release it as a limited edition so made it an open edition. Nevertheless, he signs each print personally. The fine quality and signature make this a real bargain if you don't mind the fact it is an open edition, but limited to 3,000 signed copies.
He personally oversees the printing process to ensure superb quality reproduction from his original pencil drawing. Polar Bear Swimming is not a limited edition. The fine art paper he has chosen to best show off the incredible detail is Italian-made Fabriano 5. Ideal for lithographic printing this paper (50% cotton blended with carefully selected raw materials) is acid free to guarantee excellent permanence and resistance to ageing. Gary then quality checks each print and it is personally signed by the artist.
