Monochrome screenprint with a background fade in back and grey shades with gold ink lettering in the moon printed on Somerset Satin 410 gsm paper. Created in celebration of Saint Valentine's Day 2021 featuring a couple, available in two different designs: woman/woman, man/woman.
Please note: Each screenprint is slightly different due to the technique used to create the black to grey fade of the background. This is a reflection of the hand-pulled nature of each unique print.

'Alone in the darkness
Trying and failing
Flawed and full of fears and doubts
Until your light was there
Guiding me
Always by my side
Shining, shining
And showing me
A way ahead'
