Item Description

On one of my trips to Cataracts Canyon I captured this magical shot of the path leading around the lake to the canyon. The light in the morning there is incredible and this is a very luminous print.

The ready to hang image being offered in this listing is a Plaque Mounted 12x16” Open Edition print.

Plaque Mounted images are mounted on 1/2" MDB and have a luster laminate that protects the surface of the print. This is a very attractive contemporary presentation. These images have either single keyhole cut for hanging on a standard drywall screw.

This print was made on 230 gsm Lexjet Premium Archival Matte paper with a Epson 9600 printer using the OEM Epson Ultrachrome Pigment 7 color ink set.

All our prints are first party editions made personally by the artist in his studio in Fremont California. All prints include full provenance in the form of a signed certificate of authenticity and studio invoice specifying the edition type and number if applicable.
