Kathleen Mcnally Appraisal

"Flight" by Kathleen McNally Art Print

This item is an original art print titled "Flight" by artist Kathleen McNally. The piece depicts four vibrant hot air balloons ascending through a blue sky with soft, atmospheric cloud cover. The composition uses a vertical orientation and is executed in a style reminiscent of watercolor or soft-focus lithography, characterized by muted but distinct tones of red, white, blue, and gray. Each balloon features unique geometric patterns, including vertical stripes and horizontal bands. The print is mounted within a cream-colored mat that features a debossed border around the image aperture. Notable markings include the title "Flight" handwritten in pencil on the lower-left margin and the artist's signature "McNally" in the lower-right margin. The print appears to be on heavy art paper or cardstock. Regarding condition, the paper shows minor yellowing consistent with age, though the colors remain well-preserved with no significant evidence of fading or light damage. The matting appears clean with sharp edges, suggesting it has been stored or framed properly. There are no visible tears, creases, or foxing on the primary image surface. The artistic style and signature suggest it belongs to the late 20th-century contemporary representational print category, focusing on aerial and whimsical themes with professional-grade execution.
