At fourteen years old, I really wanted to become a photographer. The family camera then was an Instamatic Point -and-Shoot camera with flashcubes. If I was going to go ´pro´, I needed something more sophisticated. Using my Paper Round and pocket money, I saved and saved up for this, my Olympus OM10 SLR camera. I loved its blinking aperture and flash gun. Here it is transformed into tones of blue and orange.
The original stitched painting for this fine art giclée print is a thread drawing I have created using fabrics, deep red thread (freestyle machine embroidery), translucent papers and acrylic paints. It is inspired by my love of vintage detail and my treasured Olympus camera. The original itself is no longer available but we can discuss a commission if you are interested in a similar one.
THE FINE ART GICLÉE PRINT
- Professionally printed in Barcelona using Fine Art heavyweight archival paper (which looks and feels like watercolour paper). Printed using UltraChrome archival inks which are fade resistant. A GICLÉE is a high quality process that produces pure colour, high resolution prints that faithfully mirror the vibrant colours and textures of the original stitched painting.
Sizes include a border around the image and are ready for framing.
- The print will have the title and my signature along the bottom edge beneath the image.PLEASE NOTE that the colour you see on your screen may differ slightly from the colour of the original and the print. Also, the watermark that you may see on your screen will not be on the original stitched painting or giclée print you receive.
Originals and prints are carefully packed in a sturdy cardboard box or tube and shipped to you using a registered/signed-for postal service with a tracking number.
