A birthday gift for a mountain biker

So excited this secret is finally out of the bag, I’ve been dying to share it with you because I love it. 

And I can personally relate to everything in this commissioned screen print. A birthday gift surprise screen print on copper leaf, using the clients photographs of mountain biking the Top of the World Trail in Whistler and them watching the sunset with their black Labrador. 

Including this perfect quote from Winnie the Pooh...

“You are braver than you believe, stronger than you seem and smarter than you think.
But the most important thing is, even if we are apart, I'll always be with you.” 

I hope they like it as much as enjoyed making it. I’ve heard that they do.

And it looks great on the blue wall…

I have a version called ‘All down hill from here’ in my shop which you might also like:

Seldom Seen Mountain Biking Screenprint

Building up the layers of this 10 colour screen print, watching a piece develop and seeing it all come together, is really exciting . My favourite part of summer is sunset mountain bike rides with my friends, this route down Helvellyn, the lake district, takes in some amazing views of Ullswater.

One Day in the Mountains

For the latest One More Brew project I ran a competition to win your own mountain bike photo as an original screen print, the entries were great and it was so hard to choose the winner. I chose Lee Hammonds photo as the winner as I thought it had a great balance of mountain biking adventure and epic Lake District scenery. You can see the original photo below, Lee was delighted to receive his framed print at the One More Brew premiere. ‘One Day in the Mountains’ was printed as a limited edition all with hand painted backgrounds making each print very unique and original, this screen print is available in the shop.
