Gather retailer Ye Rosebuds'.....Fine Art Print 12"X12"

'Gather Ye Rosebuds While Ye May'

'GATHER ye rosebuds while ye may,
Old Time is still a-flying:
And this same flower that smiles to-day
To-morrow will be dying.'

Robert Herrick. 1591–1674

This Fine Art giclee printed on Archival Metallic Pearlescent paper measures a large 12"X12" (think record album size) . A sweet, hip composition that is both nostalgic and contemporary.


Artist Bio
retailer For over 25 years I operated my successful ceramics studio, creating hand painted Art-Pottery while raising my small family, doing laundry and feeding the dog! In my down-time, I taught myself photography and began manipulating images to create whimsical scenarios with a timeless quality. I first introduced my compositions as a collection of Giclee prints. I draw from my extensive collection of 18 century tin type photographs which I have gathered over the past 30 years. Sometimes friends will donate their Polaroid photo albums and I can capture personalities from their families. Using my flatbed scanner, I enter this information into my art program to produce a large pixel image. Most prints are composed of 40-70 layers of textures and images. It takes many, many hours to finally achieve the composition that I desire. The combination of the antique Tintype imagery with the Metallic Pearlescent Archival paper results in a Contemporary Daguerreotype-like quality with the charm of yesteryear!

Prints are shipped flat in a cellophane sleeve with cardboard backing.

I pay for shipping on all prints as a Thank You gift from me!
