Síocháin (Peace)

Image details [leave comment]

Description: Síocháin is the Irish word for peace, and this painting was conceived while Senator George Mitchell was negotiating and ultimately achieved a peace accord between Northern and the Republic of Ireland in 1998. Green, white and orange are the colors of the Irish Flag, green represents the Irish Catholics, the orange represents Northern Ireland and Irish Protestants, and the white is the hope of peace between the them. Each Color has a series of mazes with one path from the green and one from the orange leading into the center Labyrinth. A labyrinth typically has one entrance and one exit, but the labyrinth in the center of this painting has two entrances, so that one could enter from the green or orange side and meditate or pray to keep the evil spirits away from the peace that is represented by the only pure white in the center of the labyrinth.

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.
