The Awakening
The Awakening
Painting the ocean has always held a special place in my heart, representing my ultimate fascination. "The Awakening" was not only the name of my first solo show but also a title I bestowed upon this particular seascape. It holds a unique significance, symbolizing a pivotal moment in my artistic journey.
Having the pleasure of seeing this painting find a new home during my first solo show was a momentous occasion. However, the story doesn't end there. While the original may have found its owner, the spirit of "The Awakening" lives on through excellent quality Giclee prints that I'm thrilled to offer. This allows others to bring the allure of this seascape into their own spaces, creating a connection beyond the confines of a gallery.
For me, the ocean is not merely a subject; it's an endless source of inspiration and a canvas for exploration. "The Awakening" captures the essence of that fascination, inviting viewers to immerse themselves in the beauty and mystery of the sea. It's a visual representation of my artistic journey, a journey that continues to unfold with every brushstroke.
This is a limited edition Giclee print. The original painting was first scanned using the most advanced equipment in Europe called the Cruse Scanner, a rare device, owned by such institutions as the Guggenheim, the V&A Museum and the Vatican Secret Archive. This device produces images far exceeding the results achieved by photography and conventional flatbed scanners. The digitisation of the original is the first of several steps in our archival process which is strictly controlled for quality at all stages. Once the scan is ready it is then printed using archival quality inks and printed onto the finest quality cotton rag paper. This exquisite paper has a flat matt finish and has a small border which makes it easy to frame
Each print will be signed, numbered and titled by me underneath the image area in the white border. All prints are sent rolled in a sturdy postal tube.
