Two Part Prints
a new approach to creating size
Irrigation Man - digital painting / art prints - Dan Beck 2006
It is probably wrong to write about art prints without having actually printed a piece, but it is actually printing as I write… well half of the piece is printing while I write.
By design, this is a two part print - two sheets of Japanese watercolor paper 13 x 19 inches - together yielding an image 19 x 26 inches - with a subtle seam - that at least on my first attempt at this - looked pretty cool.
I am realizing that this is much larger than one can see on the screen and I should at the least create a detail so there is a better sense of size… when I get the printing under control.
What I anticipate is lush, textural - large enough to practically feel the spray and imagine oneself in this world.
