Please contact me, Jay Hart, to order prints or for other information or comments. I would very much appreciate feedback on the direction this effort is taking. You may use the phone, postal or email contacts at the bottom of the page, or this inquiry form. I will make every effort to reply within twenty four hours.
Each print is available from a limited edition of fifteen, with another five prints held in reserve at a price to be determined. Prices without framing range from $400 to $2100, depending on the work associated with each, its size, and the innovation required to reach its final form. I also can do commissions of specific geography, shape, size, and color content. At several points in my workflow are controls which allow very precise scaling and palette design. Please be aware that it is not unusual for someone's idea of interesting place to be in fact rather boring when viewed at broad scales. The current price list will be sent on request.
My choice of presentation is a very heavy matte paper mounted on flat gatorboard, and framed with a white surround but no mat, using simple wood of tones consistent with the subtlety of the piece. While some feel the dry mount option compromises the art, I know from experience that these huge pieces are much more effective if they are emphatically flat. I prefer to leave the print open in the frame (without plexiglass) to make it more visible on close examination. Options to my preferences include other papers (glossy, textured or ultrasmooth fine art, canvas), hinge mounting, mats and spacers, and the added UV protection of plexiglass and UV plexiglass. I will also ship prints unmounted. Generally speaking, the extra cost of framing and shipping framed will be between $500 and $1000.
Prints are produced in house on a calibrated system using a late 2005 Epson large format inkjet printer (Stylus Pro 9800). Eight color K3 inks are archival with a rating of 100 years under optimal conditions.
