Bamboo Chinaman's Hat Island Giclee Canvas Print or Metal Print
Bamboo Chinaman's Hat Island Giclee Canvas Print or Metal Print (*Kailua Series) is reproduced from the original fine art by the artist. Created for Ferguson’s Bath, Kitchen and Lighting Gallery, this piece was a tile mural made for a kitchen backsplash. Thomas liked the piece so much he uses it in his tile mural advertising and decided to reproduce it as a fine art piece. “Chinaman’s Hat” is an island in Kaneohe Bay on Oahu in Hawaii. It resembles the type of hat worn by the Chinese in the rice fields.
*Kailua Series- From the Mokulua Islands, Lanikai Pillbox, Mount Olomana in the center of Kailua reaching out to Rabbit Island in Waimanalo and Chinaman's Hat in Kaneohe Bay, this series encompasses the heart of Kailua, where Thomas grew up and lives today.

Giclée (pronounced zhee-clay) prints are high-quality fine art reproductions of original artwork that are made using inkjet printing technology and are often used by artists, galleries, and museums. Giclée Canvas Prints are known for their exceptional color accuracy, resolution, and longevity. They are made using archival-quality inks and varnished with a UV-resistant coating, which means these prints can last for decades without fading or deteriorating, unless placed in direct sunlight, which will accelerate the deterioration process. Giclée Canvas Prints match the look and feel of the original oil painting. Thomas hand-paints highlights and puts his silver metallic signature in the bottom corner. Gallery Wraps (GW) are available only for Giclee on canvas. Please see the *GW size and price listed on this Giclee print product page. |
Metal Prints are a stunning way to display artwork. The high-gloss finish makes the colors so intense that they have a magical luminescence, which makes them stand out from canvas giclée prints. The process involves infusing dye directly into specially coated aluminum sheets, resulting in durable prints that are both scratch-resistant and waterproof. These prints are also easy to clean with a soft microfiber cloth and glass cleaner, making them ideal for commercial or home use. The great advantages of Metal Art Prints are their durability and longevity. They will last for decades and can be used outdoors and in bathrooms where there is sunlight and high moisture. THERE ARE NO GW FOR METAL PRINTS.
