Inspiration: The tumbling shapes in Tropical Dream draw viewers in to a tropical kaleidoscope of pink, orange, aqua and blue. I created this digital collage after a mid-winter trip to Florida, when after months of Upstate NY snow and cold, I was transported by the vibrant colors of our beach locale. A true "refresh." In my listing photos, you will see closeups to give you a full sense of the visual texture in the art. Medium: My artwork merges technology (no AI) with traditional art practices. Each painting begins with hand-blotted papers that are scanned into Photoshop. Using this robust software as an artistic tool, I cut and meticulously layer the papers to build my compositions. I can use the scanned papers in their original form, vary the level of transparency, and even alter the colors. I make design decisions based on my own artistic vision, and also to accommodate client requests. This flexibility allows my art to go beyond what's possible with traditional media while still keeping in touch with its hand-made roots. I employ a fine-art printer who ensures my high-res digital files are printed perfectly, mounted on sturdy wood stretchers with 1​/​4" float-mount frames, wired and ready to hang. Specifications: This 30x40" mixed media canvas will stand out in any space, commercial or residential. I have embellished the surface of the fine-art giclée canvas print with hand-painted collage papers and textured medium. The hand-texturizing encourages your eye to respond to shapes and colors, as well as variations in texture and sheen. While I offer open-edition prints of this piece on my website, you can be sure that the embellished version sold here through Covet Art Gallery is one-of-a-kind, personally signed, and sent with a certificate of authenticity. Framed in a brushed silver colored wood floater frame. Free domestic shipping.
