About
Although Purdy covers much of the paper in vivid colored pencil, including a bright blue sky, the text that shows through is taken from an antique ledger or accounting book. The tradition of using paper like this comes from 19th century Plains Indians who often repurposed these pages in their drawings. In this portrait scene a faceless woman stands among blue flowers and birch trees, in an elaborate outfit with her long hair done in bows. The exaggerated perspective makes the woman seem taller than the trees, conveying an air of importance.

We Offer High Quality
Custom Framing
We use the highest quality wood in our modern shop to create custom frames, frame your print with precision-cut acid-free mat board, and mount it behind a UV-blocking semi-gloss plexiglass to protect your art from the sun, dust, pollution, heat, and humidity. Then we add finishing touches like a wall hanging mount, wall friendly bumpers and a protective backing.
