"Fine-Arts" prints on paper
It is a process of printing on art paper using very high-quality pigment inks and printed in very high definition. Its level of conservation is exceptional (more than 100 years), its quality, depth, and richness of nuances exceeds the classic photo print on Argentic paper.
Glossy finish
Apart from its exceptional thickness, the fiber paper is composed of an alpha-cellulose base without acid and it is covered with barium sulphate, and a microporous layer absorption enhancing pigments during printing. A pure white color, non-yellowing to light, this paper is especially designed for resistance and aging. It is used by major museums worldwide as it offers excellent resolution, rendering deep and dense colors.

The fulmars dive-bomb and spray a stinky deposit if you happen to be unlucky enough to be in proximity.
They were getting increasingly agitated and flying about overhead back and forth and making noises.
They nest high up in the cliff face yet they are still hugely protective of their young.
This one was circling round and round in the largest patrol circle - I titled it The Minder and I saw this bird as the guardian, the minder of the colony. The fierce Protector guarding the unreachable.
Sentinel of the insurmountable.

Eilbhe Donovan works from her garden studio in the picturesque South West of Ireland. Having studied Illustration in West Wales School of the Arts, Eilbhe worked as a decorative painter for many years before returning to Fine Art.
Her subject is wildlife, but in a contemporary minimalist style.
She achieves this by visiting reserves and marine environments to sketch, photograph, record and observe.
All image sources are the artist's own.
Process: Paintings are using natural hair Chinese ink brushes, painting with water before applying ink using a pipette. This leaves the pigment to spread arbitrarily within the water film culminating in unpredictable results, none of which become truly apparent until fully dry.
The paper is very specific as it holds a strong yet fine line without splintering or bleeding into the fibres of the paper. Sustainably sourced from St Cuthberts Mill in Somerset on a 10m roll x 152.4cm, this large format means the work can be sized exactly. None of her pieces are the same size - the image and the subject dictates the format and size of the work. Working initially within a far larger size, the finished image is scaled down by tearing, a precise procedure using a hand ruler that can ruin a piece if not executed correctly.
In print, works are done with intaglio etching ink in the monoprint technique before running through the press, followed by further manipulation using pencil, acrylic ink and metal leaf.
This monoprint effect is something orphic, almost reticent. Marks made through the process are capricious because of the many variables – the final picture becoming a dreamlike transgression from the source image.
Imaginings and stories develop through this process.
Eilbhe intends to create such stories, telling tales of the lives of her studies - the difficulties faced in this increasingly anti-wildife age. Her message is to communicate the dilemma facing us as one of many species in a shared world. She hopes her work will inform the viewer as such, create a quiet pensive space for admiration of our diverse world and the richness within it - to become aware, one must be still.
Her work delivers a peace, a simple beauty.
