Death and Life Giclee Canvas Prints or Metal Prints
Death and Life Giclee Canvas Prints or Metal Prints (*Solemn Series, *Waterfall Series) are reproduced from the original fine art by the artist. As we experience life, we experience death. We feel helpless, shown by the hands in the tress reaching up towards the bird (symbol of the spirit leaving). It all revolves around time (the hourglass) and the desire to live long lives (turtles). The Iris flower represents hope and the pain we feel is shown by the waterfall/eye that is the earth. Just before Thomas unveiled this painting for a dear friend's wife who passed suddenly, a moth landed on the painting. Moths are said to be a symbol of someone's spirit who comes back to visit. As we see the face looking at us, we realize that love is the only force in the universe that transcends time.
The *Solemn Series is a collection of paintings that deal with unique subject matter. These works are more than “pretty pictures” and they tell a story.
*Waterfall Series- Whether it's the Koolau mountain range or some dreamy escape from reality, waterfalls create a connection between the earth and our soul.. Waterfalls allow us to taste and feel the earth with the element that is 60% of our body weight.

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.
