Title: Communion
Artist: Susan James
Medium: Copper plate photogravure (hand-colored)
Subject Matter:Communion captures a quiet, intimate moment of connection among three wild mustangs of the Onaqui herd in Utah. Etched into a traditional copper plate photogravure, the vertical composition highlights the gentle interplay of forms—the dark, sweeping manes, crisp embossed textures, and soft contours as the horses standing close to one another. Each print in this edition is individually hand-colored with watercolor paint, bringing warm, luminous golden tones to the central mustang while preserving the rich, atmospheric intaglio ink depth of the photogravure process. Rendered at 16 x 6.5 inches, this piece offers a contemplative, tactile look at the subtle bonds that define life within the wild herd.
Printmaking Process: hand-pulled, handed painted intaglio etching
Ink/Paper Combination: Payne’s Gray ink printed on Rives BFK paper.
Image Size: 16 × 6.5 inches
Paper Size: 19 x 10.5 inches
Edition Size: 50 original prints plus two Artist’s Proofs. All prints are signed, numbered, and titled in graphite pencil by the artist.
All images come with a Certificate of Authenticity signed by the artist
Remarks: This image represents a typical image in the edition. A specific edition number (i.e.: 3/50) may no longer be available.
