Hannah

Image details [leave comment]

Description: From Hannah's earrings to the triangle grid that is based on a poster from the Thirteenth Secession Exhibition, the subject matter in this painting is heavily influenced by Art Nouveau. The colors are based on Hannah, the subject of the photograph that the painting is about, and the environment surrounding her when the photo was taken. But the subject of this painting is painting itself more than Hannah because it is abstract. It is about the syntax and subject of a painting in relation to that of a photograph. The idea of combining abstract increments beside photographic increments is not to revive illusionism. There is no illusion or traditional realism in the painting at all. This painting is about distortion of our perception of reality. It shows that the language of painting as the antithesis of the way we perceive our reality. What seem realistic, the photographic increments, are records of abstract mark-making based on information from a camera. And the seemingly abstract increments are real measurements of the area of this painting as an object that exists in our space. The photographic elements are records of the transcription of the information from a photograph onto a canvas. The striped increments serve as interuptions in the photographic information so that each increment of the painting can be read individually. The act of reading it becomes a situation in itself. It is an extension of the Photorealist concern of making Process Art based on a photograph.

Prints

Bluecanvas offers Giclee prints on Epson Premium Photo Luster, Epson UltraSmooth Fine Art, or Chromata White Canvas papers. Our paper was chosen based on the highest quality, most vivid color reproduction, and archival attributes. You may choose to order prints, with or without mounting material. We use a sturdy, lightweight 3/16" Gatorfoam material for mounting fine art prints.

Epson Premium Photo Luster is a traditional choice of photographers and artists. Like all of Epson's innovative media, this paper is engineered to give you the highest resolution and color saturation possible.

Epson UltraSmooth Fine Art is for artists and professional photographers who require true archival print media. This is an acid free, 100% cotton hot press paper that is coated on both sides for extra versatility. This fine art paper is not only acid, lignin, and chlorine free, it is also pH buffered with calcium carbonate for a true archival sheet.

Chromota White Canvas is a textured 19 mil Bright White, consistent Poly Cotton Blend Matte Canvas using an acid-free, neutral pH coating. Unlike 99.9% of available inkjet canvas products on the market today, this canvas utilizes our "Chromata White" optical brightener additive-free (i.e No OBA's are used in this product) and Fluorescent Whitening agent-free breakthrough technology.

"Chromata White" gives the end-user the most stable platform on which to print photographs and fine art giclees without the metamerism issues or color shift issues inherent on other canvases. Optical Brighteners compromise the attainment of true color, they complicate profiling accuracy, and they inevitably deteriorate and yellow over time.

Gatorfoam is an extruded polystyrene board that is bonded between two layers of Luxcell wood-fiber veneer. This makes Gatorfoam heavy duty while allowing it to be used for a huge number of applications. Gatorfoam foam board is a premier choice for mounting exhibits, graphics, signs and displays. It is light weight, strong, rigid and warp resistant.
