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.

Smugglers’ Notch is a narrow winding pass that snakes through huge rock outcroppings in the Green Mountains of Northern Vermont. This area has a rich history, starting with Vermonters who used its many caves and rugged terrain to avoid capture as they smuggled goods to and from Canada during the Jefferson embargo of 1807. Then again, as part of the Underground Railroad to smuggle runaway slaves into Canada, and finally to smuggle liquor during the prohibition period. There were many places here where trees grew right on top of the rocks but this spot intrigued me because of this large sentinel like tree that was perched on the edge of a small cliff, held there by a long serpentine root that just seemed to keep growing until it wound around the rock anchoring itself. I loved all the texture but, as usual, I took some liberties with the details in order to provide more contrast in the background and more clarity in the foreground.
