Beatrice makes engravings using an intaglio press. The process is long: first drawing, then engraving, printing and colouring by hand. The material on which Beatrice engraves is fragile, so print runs are short, rarely more than twenty-five, and each final image varies slightly in colour and sometimes composition from the rest of the series, making it unique.

‘Through her prose and illustrations, Forshall makes a passionate case for protecting each and every one of these species.’
