Giant Kelp Scimitar Study: Signed Edition of 50

$75.00

A limited edition print (edition of 50). The original cyanotype print was created with giant kelp (Macrocystis pyrifera) collected by the artist while freediving off La Jolla, California. Each print is numbered and signed by the artist and ships with a signed certificate of authenticity.

Edition Details

Edition of 50. Image Size: 10” x 7.5”. Paper Size: 11” x 8.5”. Paper Type: Canson Arches Aquarelle. Printer: Thurston Print Lab.

Giant kelp (Macrocystis pyrifera) is an incredible species with one of the fastest growth rates on the planet. A type of brown algae, giant kelp can grow over 12 inches per day in ideal conditions to total lengths of 100 feet. Their holdfasts anchor them along the ocean bottom in rocky reef areas along the Pacific Coast of North America, while their pneumatocysts, or gas bladders, lift them towards the water's surface to access sunlight for photosynthesis. Giant kelp is the primary kelp forest building species in Southern California, where it creates habitat for hundreds of other marine species.
