three's a crowd

I've started a new series of work - the animal portraits. This has come about through my admiration for Belgian linen (having had some of my art work printed on it recently) and liking how look when they are framed. Here's the first one I did. It's one of my Nest Pattern birds as a giclee on linen, which I then framed in this adorable vintage Italian metal frame I found in an op shop. It's special to me, and I may be inclined to stab anyone that tries to take it from me, but soon... there will be more animal portraits available for sale.  We'll see, who knows.  I get side tracked, and move on... Manic as ever.

giclee prints on belgian linen

our little friends: professional giclee prints on belgian linen stretched canvas - new in store I've just had my first lot of art work printed on belgian linen. I'm loving it. I love linen, and I adore the tactile quality of these. I'll most likely only do limited runs, ensuring a more exclusive, one of a kind finished piece. I have two of these at the moment, I may or may not do more in this colourway and size.  They are stretched on a canvas wood frame. Totally adorable, and touchable!

Orbital

A quick hello... a bit of excitement, a new Giclee Print. I'm calling it Orbital, but knowing me, it might end up something longer - ie: a sentence, or (hopefully not) a paragraph.

Helsinki Afternoon August 1969

So my new Giclee prints arrived late last week, and they are gorgeous.  They are professionally printed right here in Melbourne on state of the art Epson 7900 and Epson 9900 pigment ink printers. They have special people who do it all - colour management, printing, re-sizing, etc. I'm thrilled.  

Update 21st December 2009
The title took some time, but I was lying in bed one warm sunny morning, looking out the window watching the Oleander flowers in the tree sway, and a little murmur of the title started to come through.  A week later, and the name has been chosen. "Helsinki Afternoon August 1969".
