As he consumes experiences of travel and looking searchingly at the work of others, he is developing his own singularly powerful draftsmanship; a constant readjustment to his surroundings.” - Simon Martin, Director, Pallant House Gallery\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"george-and-dragon-1","title":"George and Dragon","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eMedium:\u003c\/b\u003e Original Screen Print\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eEdition Size:\u003c\/b\u003e 75\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eSigned and Numbered:\u003c\/b\u003e Signed and numbered\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePaper:\u003c\/b\u003e 300 gsm Somerset Tub Sized Satin\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/b\u003e Paper size 670 mm x 485 mm\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAn early example of Michael's work, this print was made as part of a series of three prints exploring traditional pub signage.
