The 'Open Edition Artist's Prints' are produced by myself 'on demand' using my professional Epson Stylus Pro 7880 wide format printer on the highest quality Epson 350gsm heavyweight Premium Satin poly/cotton (65/35) water resistant art canvas at a high definition 2880 x 1440 dpi and using UV resistant 9 colour 100% pigmented inks guaranteed lightfast for 75 years. This canvas has a glossy surface and may be stretched for framing if required. I can also print on heavyweight Hahnemühle (or equal) fine art paper if required and subject to the quantity of prints. Each print is individually reproduced, QC examined and passed by myself to authenticate its origin and verify its quality. Please see the Prints page for further details. Print prices are uniform, depending only upon size. Although all artwork is shown in my galleries in the colours created, I can produce prints in black & white should this be preferred. Please contact me for details. They are generally supplied unframed to save on shipping costs, though frames can be provided at an extra cost if required.

Description:

In her frozen poise, the elegant, flighty dancer, blindly takes a Leap into the Unknown...

Produced in cooperation with Yohanes Paganda Halasan Harahap (Thanks Yohanes)

Painted entirely with a knife. A high level of contrast is provided and the colours made extremely rich, bold and lustrous, thus creating a very contemporary feel overall.

It's a large, very dramatic, passionate, emotive, moody and atmospheric figurative dance painting that would not look out of place as a feature in a lounge, study, office, music room, conservatory, bedroom, hall, landing or similar room and be a focal point to be proud of.

This painting will be supplied framed in a heavy, high quality frame. Contact me for details

Contact myself for more information about this beautiful work of art, or if you would like to purchase a print. Obviously, the quality of the original painting and prints is much better than displayed here, though if you wish to make a closer inspection, please let me know of any specific area you're interested in and I'll e mail a higher resolution image to you.

Please see the below image of the beautifully framed work of art.

Also, please see the below promotional poster for a play entitled 'Leap' by Ela Weiss-Moskovitz which used an image of my oil painting, kindly sent by Levy Shimon of the Tel Aviv University Theatrical Department (Thanks Levy). More details here.

In December 2010, this painting was a selected finalist in the Aesthetica Magazine Creative Works Competition and is therefore featured in the Creative Works Annual 2011 as shown below. Considering that this is a very contemporary, often modern art magazine, this was quite an accomplishment!

In January 2011, Harvest Christian Lifestyle Magazine featured 'Leap into the Unknown' on their cover as shown below. Thanks Teri...

And here's what a wide variety of artists thought of it on Deviant Art and Red Bubble, where you can also purchase unsigned prints, posters, postcards, mugs, t shirts, coasters, stickers and jigsaws of my artwork.
