About the GiClee Print You're About to Purchase (Click to expand)
GiClee prints are a high quality, high resolution print that we are offering on paper or canvas. The canvas prints come on a stretcher with black printed around the edge and flush mount hangers and wire on the back so that they can be hung without a frame if the customer desires. They will be signed and numbered on the back of the stretcher where there will also be a signed and numbered authenticity card containing the story behind the painting and a short bio of the artist.

The paper prints are produced on a heavy cotton rag, acid free watercolor paper and shipped with the same authenticity card. The paper prints are a little less costly to produce but will have to be framed in order to hang them.

The prices on this site are for the canvas editions. If you desire a paper print instead of canvas just apply the “paper print coupon” which will subtract $30
from the price of the print.

All of these prints are part of fairly low edition sizes ranging from 150 to 225 prints. When an edition is sold out it will no longer be available.

As I worked on this painting I realized that it was a study in contrast. All trees have deformities, imperfections and broken branches, but when winter comes, the snow clings to the pines in a way that dresses them beautifully and hides most of their imperfections. In contrast, the deciduous trees, like these two large maples in the foreground, are already stripped to their skeletons in winter baring all their irregular growth patterns, brokenness, and scars from past encounters with weather, woodpeckers, and humans. Then the snow comes and, instead of hiding these imperfections, as it does for the conifers, it actually highlights them. It seems to accentuate all their brokenness, imperfections, and scars. The clinging snow on these old maples brings more attention to the story of their past, and for me, a different kind of beauty. The beauty of their imperfections. The random placement of the snow laden hay bales seemed to complete that story.
