Presentation Options
The way a piece is presented is an important part of the art and can dramatically change the it's effects. I currently offer two (very different) options.
Metal : With inks infused directly into the metal (via Dye Sublimation), these pieces are extremely vivid and sharp. With no distracting borders from matting or a frame, the art is all the eye sees. All are lightweight and come ready to hang. The limited edition pieces come with a rigid inset frame on the back and a wire hanger (see images below).
Stones : We also offer a non-traditional way to “frame” the art. We start with the right kind of print and capture the inks (only) in an acrylic. This acrylic holding the inks (no paper remains) is then worked by hand into the surface of hand cut Flagstone. Each stone has it’s own unique texture and surface features, so that each piece is unique. In fact, we often use the surface features of the stone to enhance the subject matter and become part of the composition. These pieces can be displayed on an easel and also mounted to just about any wall (even the larger stones) making them a versatile presentation of the art.
