This ready to hang, gallery-wrapped art piece features a bridge running over a new York cityscape.I haven’t been everywhere yet, but it’s on my to do list. I’ve visited a fair bit of the world, though, witnessing it with the slight disposition of a New Yorker. The New Yorker in me was pummeled and reshaped during my first years in the military. A fast-talking, ‘arrogant’ (my accent made people automatically assume this), over achiever was not received well in a group mostly comprised of less urban people. I was young, and I learned, and I traveled, and I relearned, and now all of the above is a habit. When the habit fades I know it is time to move again. Along the way I learned first the camera, and later the pen. Today I carry both and they war with each other for my attention.
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.
