The Western flanks of Eryri (Snowdonia) with the huge mass of Foel Goch and Y Garn beyond, taken in late afternoon light on a freezing cold winter's afternoon on Elidir Fach.
"I trudged higher up the hill; no rush, just savouring the sounds and textures, fascinated by the remnants of old industrial machinery en route. It was lovely breaking that virgin snow with every footstep, for a short time at least feeling as if I were the only person ever to set foot there. I was eventually overlooking Llanberis and Yr Wyddfa (Snowdon) and I was impressed by the monochromatic textures of rock and snow, countered by the soft colourations of clouds and sky.
By 3.45pm I was still about 400ft from the summit and intense black clouds were now widespread over Anglesey. The sun was dropping behind the hills, rapidly darkening the environment and lowering the temperature, so - not having a head-torch with me - tempting though it was, I decided to get off the hill instead. The sky became warmer, pinker and more intense and the shadows became darker in the freezing air.

ABOUT THE PRINTS:
Glyn's prints are all produced on soft-textured, archival cotton-rag paper, using archival pigment inks. The manufacturer's estimated lifespan for these prints is over 200 years when behind glass & viewed under artificial lighting.
Each print is signed & titled by the artist, and the editioned prints are obviously numbered as well. Glyn limit's his print editions to short quantities, so you are purchasing much rarer artworks than the mass-produced prints seen in furniture & home stores.
Editions range from 3 to 30 copies in the A2 & A1 size, and just 5 copies in the A0 size.
