British watercolour artist Aimee del Valle now lives and works in a rural village in France, near Paris. Her early life was spent heavily immersed in the world of theatre and dance, and this provided plenty of inspiration for her other passion; drawing and painting. When Amy wasn’t dancing, she was sketching people, especially dancers, an interest encouraged by her two naturally artistic parents. Dance and the human form remain a strong influence in Aimee's work, and her exquisite ballerinas, portraits and nudes express raw human emotion and feelings using brisk, expressive brushwork. Aimee paints in a comparatively loose and liberal technique whereby she allows the paint to create unique rhythms and imperfections in a reflection of real life. “I am inspired by people, their psychology and their cultures as well as animals and all things living and beautiful.”

We use 2mm cast acrylic, which is visually indistinguishable from glass and virtually unbreakable. 

We specifically do not use styrene, as, though cheaper, it is normally only 1mm thick, offers far less support, and goes yellow over time. 

We use MDF backboard for strength. As MDF is a wood product, it can contain acids. To safeguard against these leeching out and affecting your print, we insert an acid free sheet of conservation barrier board between the back and print. 

All of our prints are delivered ready to hang.
