- Details
From the Linger project, Linger #1 is the first image created in an ongoing series that explores the delicate interplay between decay and beauty, with flowers suspended in water and encased within the contours of a glass vase. At its core, it's a series that speaks to deeper themes of time and impermanence, revealing how a flower, even in its fading state, retains a haunting elegance—a quiet reminder of time's passage.
Within its contained yet fluid environment, the flowers are transformed into poetic artifacts, where light plays a pivotal role in shaping the visual narrative. The transparency of the vase acts as both a frame and a prism, creating layers of depth that enhance the composition. More than just a vessel, the vase serves as a metaphor—enclosing these delicate remnants in a space where they are both preserved and fading, confined yet ethereal, suspended between the vibrancy of their past and the tranquility of their present.
Through the dynamic interplay of light, form, and texture, the series captures the ephemeral nature of existence—where even in decay, beauty persists with a quiet, haunting grace. The stillness within each image invites contemplation on the transient nature of beauty, balancing organic and inorganic elements to reflect the ongoing transformation of life over time.
Ultimately, this series is an exploration of form, light, and refraction, highlighting the delicate beauty that remains even in decline. But more importantly, it serves as a meditation on life's fragility, offering an abstract reflection on transformation, beauty, and the ever-evolving nature of existence.
The Print
My Limited Edition prints are meticulously crafted to the highest standards, using a professional printer and professional quality papers and ink. The paper is museum-quality Hahnemühle's FineArt Baryta Satin, recognized for its exceptional detail and resistance to aging. Made of 100% α-cellulose that has been refined with a special inkjet coating for FineArt applications. This subtly textured, smooth base paper contains no optical brighteners and has a silky, smooth surface texture with a beautiful feel and a substantial weight of 300gsm that surpasses the thickness of standard prints. The satin-gloss premium inkjet coating guarantees exceptional print results with intense colors, deep blacks, and outstanding sharpness. It's an acid and lignin-free FineArt paper that meets the most exacting requirements for age resistance and produces stunning FineArt reproductions of black and white and color photographs.
To complement Hahnemühle's paper, prints are created on an Epson's SureColor P800, a professional quality printer that uses eight Epson UltraChrome HD archival inks to produce stunning images. Additionally, these archival inks ensure that your Limited Edition Fine Art print will remain fade-resistant for many decades, preserving its brilliance and beauty for future generations.
Authenticity
My dedication to authenticity starts with discreetly embossing my logo on the bottom right corner of the print, ensuring you are provided with a genuine Limited Edition Fine Art Print. Further, each print includes a personalized, signed, and dated certificate of authenticity with essential information such as the title, caption, print size, number in the series, captured date, and location for landscape and nature prints. Also, to further its authenticity, security hologram stickers with matching serial numbers are affixed to both the certificate and the backside of the print.
Shipping
Ensuring your Limited Edition Fine Art Print is pristine and ready to frame when it reaches your hands is a top priority. Appropriately, I follow a meticulous and carefully curated process. First, to ensure each print meets my high standards, prints are created for each order, allowing me to inspect the quality for any defects. Once it passes my stringent quality inspection, I allow it to dry for 48 hours before it is prepared for shipping. Lastly, for the shipping process, I add a protective sheet of archival paper over the print before it is securely rolled and packaged in a sturdy mailing tube (larger prints) or sandwiched securely between two layers of cardboard for mailing envelopes (small prints).
For customers in the United States, including Puerto Rico and the US Virgin Islands, I am pleased to offer complimentary USPS Priority Mail Shipping for all orders exceeding $80.00 and a flat $8.99 rate for all other orders.
Framing
For my customer's convenience, I carefully selected print sizes that readily fit available in-stock frames at your local craft or frame stores. With these standard-size frames, customers will have a wide array of options to choose from, ensuring they can easily find a frame that complements the print perfectly. However, it's worth noting that while the square prints may offer a variety of choices, they will not have as many options as the frames for the portrait-oriented prints.
Custom framing from local craft and frame stores or online retailers is another option to consider. At Local stores, whether it's for a custom order or one of their in-stock options, their knowledgeable framers can offer advice for selecting the perfect frame. Additionally, online retailers are also a great resource, especially those with the ability to upload a digital image to compare frames with a visual representation of your new Fine Art Print.
Don't forget to checkmark "Yes... Please send me an uploadable sample digital image." before adding your selection to your shopping cart if you are considering frames from an online retailer.
