This is a limited edition signed print of
an original painting of a gymnast doing an arabesque.
Unique Silhouette Style Painting
The painting is one of the artist’s favorite
subjects – gymnastics - and is in a unique stark silhouette experimental
style. It is one of a group of original paintings with a gymnastics
subject and all done in stark silhouette. The original painting was
done in December of 1998 and is owned by a former Elite gymnast who is
also one of the subjects of his paintings.
Hand Signed and Numbered
The painting is hand signed and numbered by the
artist. As is standard in limited editions, the painting is signed
on the lower right corner of the print and the numbers are in the lower
left corner.
One On the Wall of the Artist’s Studio
The other originals in this particular
bold style are all now in private collections or still decorating the artist’s
studio.
Only an Art Expert Can Tell It’s not the Original
This print so closely matches the artist’s original
painting that if we told you it was the original, only a very experienced
art expert could tell it was a print.
9” x 12” Work of Art
The actual print art is 9” x 12.” The print
of the painting is 9” x 12” with a two inch border of the canvass all around
the painting image for stretching (mounting on a wooden frame as is common
practice with many original paintings) or for size flexibility when framing
It is centered on a canvas that is 13” x 16” so it can be stretched over
a framed or placed in a variety of picture frame sizes.
A Short-Term and Long-Term Investment
Limited edition prints like this often increase
in value as more are sold and there are fewer available for sale. Quality
Giclée Prints also tend to rise in value over time along with other
high quality works of art.
Very Limited Edition
Many print editions number up to as many as 5000.
This very special edition print is guaranteed to be limited to only 50.
Collector’s Item
This is not just a purchase of a painting.
This limited edition is destined to become a gymnastic collector’s item
and is likely to become more valuable with age.
A Gift that Will Last a Lifetime
This would make a great gift for any gymnast,
coach, gymnastics enthusiast or art collector. It is a gift that
will last a lifetime and will likely only grow in value as does artwork
in general and as such a very small limited edition like this most likely
will.
Limited Edition
Limited edition prints, signed and dated by the
artist are generally more valuable to art buyers for the obvious reasons
of limited supply. If the demand exceeds the availability of the art the
prices and desirability increases. This is a very small limited edition
of only 200 prints. After these 200 are sold, none will ever be produced
again like these.
Museum Quality Giclée Print
Prints of this quality are proudly displayed
in art museums around the world. Giclée are well established in
the art world; they are bought and sold in world class auctions as well
as in galleries. A giclée on canvas brings a significant premium
over those printed on fine art paper. The beauty and brilliance of a pigment
giclée on canvas, watercolor or satin paper is unparalleled.
Only the Best
Giclée printing is tonality rich, luscious
in subtle ways. Sinfully rich, thick high durability substrates catering
to the discerning visual artist accustomed to the best fine art prime materials.
As a condition for creating the edition, the artist demanded that only
the best process and the finest materials be used to create the edition
pieces so none of the nuances of the original artwork would be lost.
The Finest Canvas and Ink
This museum quality giclée Print on the
finest Fredrix Ultrasmooth Canvas.
Our giclée printing process uses on the
finest quality archival inks, which are guaranteed to last up to 100 years.
Includes a Certificate of Authenticity
This print comes with a Certificate of Authenticity
signed by the artist and guaranteeing that this is an authorized print
of his original work and that the edition is guaranteed to be limited to
no more than 50 prints for now and forever.
A Favorite Subject and Painting of the Artist
There is another original painting of this same
subject in a different color and in a much larger gym-sized artwork piece
in the artist’s collection of silhouette paintings that may be offered
in the future as a limited edition, also. The artist has favorite
subjects and has frequently painted similar paintings in different sizes.
In this case there are two similar paintings, but currently this one is
the only one offered.
This is Art, Not a Poster
A canvas print is very archival and can be hung
without glass on top of it. Many people like to buy art, not posters for
their homes. In addition to durability and perceived value, a canvas
giclée print will match closely or perfectly the original, so it
is easy to see how more people want to enjoy and appreciate art as it was
meant to be.
Multiple Mounting Options
This work of art will be shipped un-mounted and
unframed allowing collectors an unlimited range of framing or mounting
choices to match their taste and décor.
