LIMITED EDITION HAND EMBELLISHED CANVAS – If the original manatee art is already sold, then a Giclée Limited Edition Canvas Print is the highest quality reproduction I can offer you as my customer. Giclée (pronounced “zhee-clay”) prints are produced from a high resolution digital scan of the original, using fade-resistant, archival pigmented inks, which are said to retain colorfastness for over 100 years. These high quality fine art prints are made one at a time, on real gallery wrapped canvas, using deluxe 1.5″ deep stretcher bars, just like my originals.

CANVAS HAND EMBELLISHMENT: Only available on the canvas option. My embellishments will be minor; adding a few background colors, subtle details or texture. In order to stay true to the original, I do not make major changes such as adding additional animals, objects, etc. To the casual viewer, the art will look basically the same, but each print will be slightly different. The extra steps of individual hand embellishment, original signature and numbering gives you a unique piece. This is why many artists and galleries are now offering hand-embellished giclée reproductions as the next best thing to owning an original. The canvas is personally signed by the artist and includes a Certificate of Authenticity (COA) which is also signed and embossed by the artist.

LIMITED EDITION GICLÉE PAPER PRINT – Produced on museum quality archival paper, made one at a time with fade-resistant, archival pigmented inks, which are said to retain colorfastness for over 100 years. Your print is produced with a white border, then personally signed and numbered by the artist, then rolled and shipped to you in a protective tube. Includes a Certificate of Authenticity (COA) which is also signed and embossed by the artist.

SIGNATURE & NUMBERS: Canvas Prints are hand-signed and numbered in acrylic paint with a brush. Paper prints are signed and numbered in pencil. Each size is restricted to 250 prints, so order today.

FRAMING: I do not offer framing, but keep in mind; you can hang your gallery wrapped original with or without a frame. Many collectors prefer the “frameless” gallery wrap style for a more modern look. If you choose to have your canvas framed, I suggest a white linen or canvas inlay as shown in the photo. For paper prints, I suggest adding a white mat with perhaps a 1/4″ color mat inlay, all under glass and surrounded by the frame of your choice. Beautiful!

EDGES: Please note, my Limited Edition Canvas Prints will typically have a complimentary solid color printed on the edges. If you prefer black edges, or a particular color to blend with your decor, be sure to let me know when you order and I will try to help you.

DELIVERY: These beautiful prints are made to order by my fine art service provider. Please allow up to 4 to 8 weeks for delivery due to the extra step of embellishment and/or signing your print. As we near holidays, the demand for these goes up and production time can be impacted. If you have a time critical order for a birthday or other event please contact me in advance to see if it will be possible. Due to logistics, in some cases your Certificate of Authenticity will be mailed to you separately.
