Chaos and Creation

Image details [leave comment]

Description: This is just a detail shot of a larger self-portrait that I did using some prints I made, a hand-cut stencil, acrylic paint, and block printing ink. I felt this detail shot was very interesting compared to the piece as a whole because it shows the focal point on a deeper and more emotional level. The eyes are like black holes that suck you in while the hands cover the face, leaving your eye to be led to my eyes. This allows the viewer to see me as a deep individual that is focused on art and aspects that come along with that freedom of expression. I feel as if this piece also gives into the idea of the oppression I've had to go through recently with family issues and issues within my mind as well. This can be tied back to the title by showing that, while I'm dragging down my face in the chaos of my life, it is also opening doors to different ways of expressing my inner thoughts creatively with no limits.

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.
