Capture the textures, look and emotion of an original artwork with hand embellishment that defines each piece as individual and unique. These printed canvas reproductions are limited to only 45 in a series and are referred to as ‘Masterworks’.
Masterworks fine art reproduction (prints) that are returned to David’s easel for hand embellishing by the artist himself. This is a time consuming process that can take hours or even days to complete. By applying various mediums and techniques, David works to create a sense of texture and movement to give each Masterwork the appearance of an original painting.
Every Masterwork is signed with brush and paint on the front, just like an original, before being hand signed and numbered on the reverse side to indicate its specific number within the edition of 45. Each Masterwork comes with a certificate of authenticity showing the matching edition number, and is also hand signed by David.
David’s fine art reproductions are the highest quality expression of his original artworks. The state of the art Giclée printing process allows the original artwork to be reproduced on museum quality fine art canvas or paper using the best quality light fast inks in the world, keeping them fade resistant for over 100 years. Each individual reproduction is created by hand in Australia by a master craftsmen printer.
This fine art process is labour intensive as David works closely together with a master craftsmen printer, to ensure each individual reproduction represents the integrity of the original painting.
There are two types of reproductions that David produces with the Giclée printing technique. The first type is called an “open edition”. These are fine art reproductions (prints) that are not assigned a limited edition number or authenticity certificate. Open editions are created using the same high quality fine art reproduction process as limited editions, and are usually printed on either artist’s quality cotton rag paper, or artist quality canvas. Each open edition will include a sticker on the back explaining the Giclée reproduction process, which is personally signed by David.
The second type of reproduction is called a “limited edition” fine art reproduction. These are generally printed onto canvas then returned to David’s studio where he hand signs and numbers each individual work. Each limited edition comes with a certificate of authenticity showing its number with the edition.
