Desdemona - The Promise - Self Portrait

Image details [leave comment]

Description: This is about the beautiful promise pledged to Othello within the holy matrimony of marriage. A promise she kept to the tragic end. ABOUT THIS SERIES: This series was born of a series of outtakes i did when trying to get the right facial expressions to overlay with R Paul Sardanas amazing abstract portraits of Desdemona. I very much wanted a way to combine mediums, to collaborate on this collection. R. Paul was generous enough to let me use his abstracts paintings as a photographic canvas. I loved the challenge of working in mixed media. It is because i took so many portraits before i got the right look, that i decided to call the outtakes, “Chasing Desdemona” because that’s what it felt like i was doing with my repeated attempts to create just the right look. And it was meant to be that way as that ended up being the perfect title for the series, itself. And i was very happy to learn that these extra portraits will be part of the book that is in the works as a follow up to this online presentation!

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.
