X-DIGITAL - Scanned art

In 2007 I started to incorporate digital or computerized art form into my creations. I will take a piece of art that I have created, scan the art using a flat bed scanner and then continue the creative process.

This form of creativity has allowed my internal vision to go beyond the paint brush. I find it challenging and rewarding to be limited to the addition of digital texture, color or purposely placed objects via computerized technology. I also have discovered that my creative thought process is greatly enhanced with the ability to generate this type of art because I have the pleasure to undo and redo as I feel I need to...I find no other form of art so forgiving. Although digital art will never replace my love of painting, I find incorporating this aspect of creation allows me to approach my painting process in a thoughtful and respectful way.

The printing process and quality of materials:

* Each giclée is personally printed by T.Young when you place your order.

* Only the finest digital papers and pigment inks are used for each giclée. Each giclée is hand signed by the artist. Prints only will have approximately a 1/2" white boarder around for ease of matting and/or framing.

* Each giclée is finished with a UV spray finish or a brush applied sealer. Each print ordered is inserted in a protective clear sleeve mounted on  Bainbridge Artcare™ archival ACID FREE foamboard.
 

Framing and Matting

* Unless noted,  Bainbridge Artcare™ Alphamat Mat Board is used for the matting material –  This type mat board is ACID FREE museum-quality preservation mat board which actively protects from air born pollutants, and reduces yellowing and fading. Free of ground wood and lignin. Fade and bleed resistant. Conservation quality.

* A completely framed art piece will include the same quality mat board as described above (double mat only available in completely framed pieces) and assembled ready for you to hang. The frame is a solid matte black wood gallery style picture frame profile with a smooth finish and is nearly an inch deep and 3/4 inches wide. 8x10, 10x10, 12x12, 14x14 and 11x14 framed art will included high quality clear framing grade glass, 2mm Thick. Sizes 16x16, 16 x 20 and up will be framed with Standard Acrylic by Acrylite® - High quality framing grade acrylic. More optically pure and lighter weight than glass. I recommend a microfiber cloth for safe cleaning without scratching and a quality acrylic cleaner (such as Brillianize by Kleenmaster).

_{* NOTE: Because each computer monitor is adjusted differently there may be a slight color variation of the print. Completely framed art may also be a bit different than the samples shown depending upon the size ordered. Sizes given for prints are approximate and may vary slightly due to printing. If a print only has been purchased, there will be a white boarder to accommodate your framing and/or matting.}
