Cities at the tip of my pen …
London Illustration
I have finished the London Illustration.
The map includes many landmarks including Waterloo Station, Westminster, Lambeth and the London Eye.
The videos below are time lapses of the detailing of the roof to Waterloo Station and North Lambeth. I already have a couple of orders for this one which is great and if you want to be one of those you can email me . Limited edition prints will be available at a limited amount so be sure to keep in touch. London is one of my favourite places to be and at least when I draw I feel like I am away even if I cant travel at the moment :)

Left is my local area of Dublin known as Phibsborough in Dublin 7.
This is a small illustration but it does not lack detail, this area includes the famous Dalymount Park, St. Peter's church, Phibsborough tower and local amenities.

My illustrations are available on a limited run at Size A2, you can purchase them through my shop on the website, or contact me directly via email. I use Inspirational Arts, Fine art Printers based here in Dublin, Ireland to make these exclusive Prints. http://inspirationalarts.ie
I can ship anywhere in the world, you can be a proud owner of a limited edition print made here in Ireland.
Stage 1 : I draw every detail with pencil and ink pen ranging from 00.5 to 00.3 fine tip pens.
Stage 2 : Jim in Inspirational arts makes a high res scan to ensure quality through the print process
Stage 3 : We select the suitable papers.
Stage 4 : Is the printing process
Stage 5 : We proof the pictures and add the seal and Certificate of Authenticity for each Limited edition print.
Stage 6 : I get the orders out to you :)
As you can tell the stages both show the amount of work that goes into printing exclusive pictures but also the time and care that I have gone into to make sure that you get the best quality for the price.
Each print is numbered and come with a certificate of Authenticity which matches with your print so that you have proof that what you purchase is a Sam Boal limited edition Print.
The Dublin Prospect print edition will only be printed in the size you purchase for the amount that I have set in this case it is x100 A2 prints therefore after these are sold there will be no more printed.
The Dun Laoighaire Print is A2 and there will only be X100 prints made.
The Dublin City Tight is a limited edition Print at size A3 limited to x100.
Each print is printed on Hahnemuhle Fine Art Photo Rag paper (a 308 gsm, acid free, archival quality 100% cotton paper) using Epson Ultra Chrome HDR archive pigment inks.
As with other art works, this print should be displayed away from direct exposure to ultra violet light present in sunlight. It has been sprayed with an acrylic coating to protect it from the environmental pollutants and the harmful effects of UV light
And come with a Certificate of Authentication to give proof its a limited print.
If you want to own something very unique this is your chance to get it for a reasonable price. My latest picture of Dublin is selling fast so do not miss out on this chance.
The latest prospect of Dublin took all most 3 1/2 months to draw out and shows detail through out Dublin City.

Here is a sneek peek of my latest illustration and the hours, days and months that go into creating.
Below video takes in from the south National Concert Hall, RDS and Dublin Bay, City Centre and looking North to Howth, Griffith Ave and Croke Park.
Detail
My illustrations for the most part are detailed drawings of capital cities and areas within that city. At the moment I have Dublin City 01, Dun Laoighaire and A large prospect veiw of Dublin City which can be purchased through the shop on this site.
These drawing’s separately took at least a few weeks to complete using imagery , my own knowledge of city streets and 3d maps to enable me to have a reference in which to draw.
I have decided due high levels of interest to offer prints of these drawings for sale on a limited Print run.
Please note these are prints and if you require framing you can do so externally or i can arrange at added costs to do this for you.
