COLLECTION IV | ETCHING PAPER A1 | FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL

First Day of School – Collection IV on Etching Paper

In a world where darkness and fear dictate judgment, what happens when the misunderstood take on the role of nurturers? First Day of School challenges our perception of good and evil, illustrating a moment of transformation—the instinct to guide, protect, and teach, no matter the form it takes.

This intricate and highly detailed artwork captures a haunting yet heartfelt scene, where what we once feared is now a figure of wisdom and responsibility. Draped in tattered robes, adorned with relics of the past, and carrying the weight of survival, this being of chaos now stands as a role model, proving that even the most unlikely creatures seek connection and purpose.

Printed on high-quality etching paper, Collection IV preserves the depth, texture, and raw emotion of the original work. A limited edition collectible, perfect for those who appreciate art that tells a deeper story—one of redemption, expectation, and the universal need to be more than what the world assumes.

Dare to see beyond first impressions—First Day of School Collection IV is a conversation starter, a statement, and a piece that lingers in the mind long after viewing.
