This ready to hang, gallery-wrapped art piece features two giraffes standing in the center of a distressed scene.I am always experimenting. Any preconceived notion, to me, is restricting. My art has to come completely from within. Even with commissions, I negotiate to maintain a certain amount of freedom with the subject. The element of surprise is truly exciting and there is something empowering about not knowing what you are going to create. When you let it come directly from your soul it can’t be derived or planned. It is not surprising then, that this can be felt by the viewer.

Giclee (jee-clay) is an advanced printmaking process for creating high quality fine art reproductions. The attainable excellence that Giclee printmaking affords makes the reproduction virtually indistinguishable from the original piece. The result is wide acceptance of Giclee by galleries, museums, and private collectors. Gallery wrap is a method of stretching an artist's canvas so that the canvas wraps around the sides and is secured a hidden, wooden frame. This method of stretching and preparing a canvas allows for a frameless presentation of the finished painting.
