"The Good Life"
paintings were inspired by my observation of what the dogs have to teach
us, exemplified by Samuel Johnson's words: |
|
"All the animals except man know that the principal business of life is
to enjoy it." |
|
My Golden,
Paint, unwittingly posed for these paintings while enjoying the tide
flats at Giant's Neck Beach on the Connecticut shoreline, 2001. |
| The paintings have
been reproduced by Gicleé*
process on fine gallery-wrapped canvas, finished with hand-brushed acrylic
varnish, signed and numbered by the artist. They are available in two sizes,
either unframed or beautifully framed in pecan with a cream linen liner by
Michael Ringer's St. Lawrence Gallery, Alexandria Bay, NY.

| *Giclee
prints are the latest digital printing technology of the 21st century.
The word Giclee, pronounced Ghee-clay, is a French term translating
loosely to "the spray". This is because a Giclee uses hundreds of
thousands of tiny dots "sprayed" onto the surface of
canvas or paper to create an image. Giclee prints can be
produced in quantities as few as one. Giclees are printed using seven
colors rather than the traditional four, giving the artist the ability
to more closely match the colors to the original. Giclees are printed at
1440 dpi (dots per inch) using water based archival fade resistant inks.
This gives the print incredible accuracy in detail as well as luxurious,
rich, color.
The fade-resistant inks are very durable. As
with any art, Giclees should not be hung in direct sunlight. |
