White-throated Swallow
Print of pencil drawing: White-throated Swallow
The White-throated Swallow is a graceful bird found across southern Africa, easily recognized by its sleek blue-black upperparts and bright white throat and underparts. It has a distinctive chestnut crown and a long, deeply forked tail, which adds to its streamlined appearance. These swallows are agile fliers, often seen swooping low over water bodies or open fields as they catch insects mid-air. They build cup-shaped mud nests, usually under bridges or eaves. The White-throated Swallow's swift, elegant flight and striking contrast of colors make it a delightful sight in its natural habitat.

Prints are personally signed, and there are two options available. The first option is an unmounted print, where the A5 artwork is centered on an A4 size paper, providing extra space around the image. The second option is a mounted print, where the +/- A5 artwork is framed within a mount, bringing the total size to A4, creating a ready-to-display piece. All prints are unframed.

CARING FOR YOUR ARTWORK
At Pencil Art by Sarnel Calitz, we want your artwork to remain vibrant and beautiful for years to come. Here are some essential tips for caring for your artwork:
- Professional Framing:
- We always recommend using a professional framer rather than DIY shop-bought frames. Professional framers use high-quality materials and acid-free mounting, which not only enhance your portrait but also ensure it is framed correctly for maximum protection and longevity.
- Framing Techniques:
- Once framed, ensure your print is under glass and use a mount to prevent the glass from touching the artwork. This helps in preserving the artwork and preventing damage.
- Placement:
- Avoid hanging your portrait in direct sunlight or in areas of high humidity, as these conditions can cause premature fading and damage.
By following these tips, your portrait can last a lifetime, providing many years of joy and admiration. Proper care and attention to these details will help maintain the integrity and beauty of your artwork.
