Metallic Fine Art Print of Original Mosaic "Cycles"
Metallic Fine Art Print of Original Mosaic "Cycles"
For the first time, I'm offering prints of my mosaic artwork! I've shown it framed to make it clear it is a print, not an original, but currently I only offer the prints.
High-quality fine art metallic print that actually does justice to the brilliance of glass. This is a type of photo paper, not actually metal, but brings out metallics used in the mosaic and a gorgeous luster to the rest of the glass, particularly the iridescent glass. This paper and printing method also brings out the rich blacks as well as a pearly sheen.
The print is 8" x 12" with a 1/4" border to help framing. The print will fit a mat with a standard opening of 8" x 12" (actual dimension 7.5" x 11.5").
About the Cycles mosaic:
Cycles is a study of the persistent growth of nature, with life emerging from the sea floor. It was the first time I used mosaic bricking patterns in the earth, separating the rigidness of the rocky seabed from the organic flow of the water and plant life. I wanted the piece to feel as if the bright iridescent stained glass was bursting out from the earthy vitreous glass. I also wanted to make the organic details of water and plant to flow, to contrast both the background and the glass mosaic tiles themselves.
This mosaic was created by Dyanne Williams in 2001. It was hand cut and crafted using vitreous glass, stained glass, glass gems, and pebbles on 3/4" plywood. The original is 24" x 36".
