Christmas gifts for dad
Dads are famously hard to buy for, because the dad who has everything already has the mug, the socks and the gadget. What he probably doesn't have is the scene from the story he grew up with, framed and on the wall. These are the prints I'd pick for him. Each one is made by me, then printed to order on heavy archival paper.
The picks
Desert Homestead at Dusk
Inspired by Star WarsTwo suns going down over the desert, and two people watching from the edge of home.
See the printThe Hound on the Moor
Inspired by The Hound of the BaskervillesFog on the moor, a full moon, and out of the dark comes the thing the legend promised.
See the printLOTR by Van Gogh: Starry Night over Mordor
Inspired by The Return of the KingWhat if Van Gogh had painted Mordor instead of a sleeping village?

How to choose
For the dad who walks, hikes or never hurries, Not All Those Who Wander Are Lost. For the dad who grew up on the original space films, Desert Homestead at Dusk, two suns going down over a desert farm. For the detective-story reader, the Hound on the Moor. If he likes his art, the Lord of the Rings in Van Gogh's style. Movie Night is for the dad who runs the remote. An oak frame is the safe choice for a study or a den.
Questions
- What do you get a dad who has everything?
- Something with a story in it. A framed print of a scene from the book or film he loves is personal, and it's very unlikely he already has it.
- Is there a print for a Star Wars fan?
- Yes, two: Desert Homestead at Dusk, with its two suns over a desert farm, and The Battle of Scarif. Both are inspired-by artworks in historic print styles.
- Can I send it straight to him?
- Yes. Put his address in at checkout. Delivery is free to the UK and US.
