You can't take an elephant on holiday

THE ART

It has been great fun working with David Tazzyman to present a range of prints from the You can't series of picture books, written by Patricia Cleveland-Peck and illustrated in David's unique signature style.

THE ARTIST

David Tazzyman is an internationally acclaimed award-winning illustrator.

After graduating from university, David travelled around Asia for three years with his sketchbooks in tow, before moving to London to work as a commercial illustrator. After working with impressive clients such as Vodafone, Orange, Fiat, Levi’s & Virgin Atlantic, David fell into children’s publishing, illustrating Andy Stanton’s Mr Gum series which went on to win numerous awards including the first Roald Dahl Funny Prize in 2008.

Along with drawing, David likes football, cricket, golf and biscuits. He still does not like celery (although he does concede it helps the flavour of a bolognese sauce).

THE PRINT AND FRAME

The art is printed on Hahnemaühle German Etching paper (310gsm), a conservation-grade high quality archival paper. This heavyweight etching paper has a fine surface texture and is one of the most popular media worldwide for higher quality artwork printing.

The print is framed by hand in Cambridgeshire in the UK, using only European sourced PEFC™ and FSC approved woods. Frames are Fine Art Trade Guild accredited which means they meet strict conservation standards and are built to last for generations to come.

We use Clarity+ glazing which is a high-quality acrylic glass alternative, offering high UV resistance which doesn't yellow over time, is not easily scratched and is safe for use in children's bedrooms.

Your framed print will arrive with D-rings and cord already attached, ready to hang right out of the box.

DIMENSIONS

Including the frame, with mount, the framed print is 62cm wide and 39cm high.

The print itself is 52cm wide and 29cm high.
