Nurture
Prints are archival, plant based, museum quality, printed on a beautifully etched cotton rag paper. Prints are sold un-matted and unframed. All sizes are the full size of the print, including a one inch border around the image. Conservation Prints are hand signed by Kimerlee. All prints have a slight sepia tone hand crafted and unique to Kimerlee’s works.
Because prints are very fragile, they shouldn't be stored in the tube for extended periods of time. Make sure to open the package within 24-48 hrs of receiving it and take it to a professional framer as soon as possible for opening and archival dry mounting. Handling your large print yourself could result in wrinkles or tears. In the unlikely event of damage, please see policy HERE.
FRAMING: It is not uncommon for prints to have a strong curl to them when first unrolled. Discuss with your professional framer about dry-mounting your print, using archival materials only, to ensure it will remain flat once framed.
PLACEMENT: All artworks should not be placed in direct sunlight to avoid any fading over time.

ABOUT THE PIECE
Great Divide Basin, Wyoming
Drinking from the well of life.
Time at the watering hole is, I’d like to think, as sacred for me as it is for them. As I observe all the wildlife that comes in for nourishment, I am reminded of our shared connection to the essence of life.
It is quite fascinating watching the spectacle that unfolds at a waterhole. As stallions battle for drinking right. This stallion and his lieutenant stallion came in to water only after making sure they established their right to be first.
While watching them drink you could feel their bodies soaking up the hydration: Life being sustained. The horses had run in from quite a distance, stood their ground and were replenishing themselves for the day.
Horses, in all their natural wisdom, not only drink the water but will partake of the earth itself. They consume the surrounding dirt and mud to absorb the rich minerals and nutrients it has provided them. Again, proving that mother nature has given them all they need to thrive in these harsh environments.
Horses are not merely inhabitants, they are literally woven into the fabric of the natural world, a vital thread in the ecological tapestry. Their presence, like all wildlife is a testament to the delicate balance of life on this planet.
As stewards of the world, it will forever be up to us to safeguard and protect wildlife and the lands they call home.
