Balboa Park Light

Giclee Print

I love the drama of raking sunlight. This drawing captures fleeting light across a building in Balboa Park, San Diego, on a June afternoon. This is a studio piece, since the lighting effect lasted about 10 minutes. A drawing can be as impressionistic as a painting — look closeup and you will see that the objects and details are nothing more than abstract shapes. When you back up and see the whole image the shapes take on their identities as a doorway, statue and columns.

About Giclee Prints

A Giclee print is the highest-quality print money can buy. The Giclee printer uses fade-resistant archival pigment-based inks on heavyweight (305gsm), acid-free paper to ensure that the colors hold true over time (a century and beyond when properly displayed).

This process costs significantly more than other types of printing (such as lithograph or other digital print) due to the premium inks used (12 pigment-based inks as compared to the four lesser-quality inks of other printers). This results in colors that are almost indistinguishable from the original.

Each Giclee print arrives to you ready for framing.
