This painting features Hand Painted Brushstrokes: first we print the image on canvas then we use a brush or pallet knife to apply clear acrylic gel to the painting giving it the look and feel of an original painting. Chickie Yamaguchi by Lucia Heffernan , My body of work is an expression and exploration of my lifelong fascination with animals. Though my paintings, I seek to give animals a voice and a personality, while making light of our uniquely human existence. By imagining what animals might do if put in human situations, I stage tableaus that shine a spotlight on both their innocence and raw instinct. This collision between animal and human sensibilities creates a whimsical, theatrical, and often humorous world that viewers can relate to on an emotional level. A graphic designer by trade and an oil painter by design, I am continually experimenting with different styles of contemporary realism that balance my artistic sensibilities, technique, and unique sense of humor. As I evolve, what remains constant is my respect for the animals that inspire me, and my desire to bring a smile to the face of every viewer.”This painting printed on thick Gallery Wrap Canvas is printed using the latest Giclee techniques on museum grade canvas. Our Giclee printers use 12 colors to create a rich color gamut giving the deep dark and subtle highlights of an original painting. Our gallery wrap canvases are printed on thick 100% cotton canvas because we noticed that the cheap poly canvas our competitors are using is "sagging" or "draping". Thick 100% cotton canvas will loosen naturally when the wood expands and it will shrink like fresh jeans just out of the drier when the wood shrinks. The canvas is then stretched over kiln dried – finger jointed pine. With finger jointing technology the wood stays straight and strong. Finger jointed pine frames are superior to other stretcher frames because we cut around the knots and re-join the wood using the finger jointing technology.
Features : - THICK CANVAS WILL NOT SAG: We only use thick 100% cotton canvas that will not sag like the cheap poly canvas does.
- RICH COLOR FROM GICLEE PRINTING: Our 12 color giclee printing process provides a rich color gamut that can not be achieved using a four color process printer.
- STURDY FRAMES WILL NOT WARP: Finger jointed pine frames do not have knots and will not bend or warp.
- FREE WIRE HANGER PROVIDED: Wire hangers are superior to sawtooth hangers.
- FAST SHIPPING: ships within five business days.
- HAND PAINTED ACRYLIC TEXTURE. We start by printing the image on a canvas then we add hand painted acrylic texture to give the painting the look and feel of an original painting.
