Description
This Fine Art Print of the original acrylic painting, features a yearly event towards the end of June, with the fall of the Rhododendron petals. A lush, natural archway of vines, of earthy tones, in contrast to the colourful ‘carpet’, in vibrant shades of magenta, and purple blossoms.
Textured, short, and layered paint application creates a highly tactile surface. The explosion of pinks and purples against the deep greens and browns, brings relief to the darker pathway and introduces a joyful, lively energy into an otherwise moody, shadow-filled forest setting. The natural, arched canopy gives the scene a fairytale-like quality, creating a feeling of safe enclosure or shelter and as the bright light beckons, it feels welcoming, pulling the viewer into an intimate, dreamlike world.
The lack of human figures creates a quiet, reflective atmosphere for the viewer. It offers a sense of peaceful isolation, inviting the viewer to walk the path alone, in quiet contemplation, an escape from the noisy World.
What is a ‘Fine Art Print’?
I paint directly onto stretched canvas using various mediums e.g. Acylic, Oil, Chalk, creating an Original Painting. A professional photographer (Nick Kavanagh, Kenmare) then shoots these. Your Fine Art Print will arrive packaged, in professional tissue paper protecting it, in a durable postage tube, as a rolled print and you will be able to then choose your own frame. Purchasing Art in this way is also the ideal way to buy a present for someone, who may have their own ideas for a frame.
Rolled Fine Art Prints are often more affordable because you only purchase the print itself and it also offers more creative freedom, taking it to a local, trusted professional for a custom frame. (Smaller prints under 12 inch, are sent in flat protective packaging, with the same high standards.)
Whether you choose an Original Painting or a Fine Art Print, I hope my paintings will bring you some moments of peace and quiet in this mad World we live in.
For those who wish to know a bit more, what is the Printing Process?
Fine Art Printing, also known as ‘Giclée’ Printing (which means spraying or splashing liquid), is a method of making high quality fine art prints, using ink-jet printing. My expert Printer used Giclée printing to reproduce my original painting, to my exact specifications. It is a perfect reproduction, and offers excellent texture, depth and vivid colour, especially as so many of my pieces offer beautiful texture.
I have chosen a Hahnemühle silk-textured fine art paper, that sits perfectly between gloss and matte, offering a perfectly rich depth of colour. Subtle, tactile texture gives prints a premium, gallery-quality feel, while keeping colours true and detail sharp. Ideal quality, the fit between full gloss (too reflective) and matte (too flat).
