current experiment in large art prints made by combining sheets of watercolor paper

Bold Glimpse - Digital Painting/ Art Prints - Dan Beck 2006

I wrote an article about this piece which I don’t think I can improve upon - it was poetic and captured the evening in words enhancing the visual front and center.

Today I bring it up for different reasons. First it remains one of my personal favorites - in some way I feel like this is uniquely me - though undoubtedly there are other pieces which are even more so.

Secondly, I have not as of yet had a reason to have this printed large. It has just become an experiment of printing half a piece on my largest capable size watercolor sheet (13 x19″) - and piecing the two together.

From what I have been able to do so far, I think it might work - gluing will be the key. And I am too sick to glue (a cold). At the very least is will be stupid - but fun. But who knows it may prove to be an economical way of printing larger pieces at Outhouse Studios proper - particularly if they are designed to be done that way.

  pretty unrelated really - but interesting - I thought “too sick to glue” was pretty funny so I googled it - guess I am too sick to search too hard too

  I keep thinking about this piece as one being uniquely me and also having the bold light of the above piece - the connection with the other link is not lost on me either

image fits watercolor paper by design - gives unique look

This is a photo of a 13 x 19 inch print of my most recent digital painting. I wanted to show how it fills the page. The size of the digital painting was designed to fit this size paper with the smallest margin possible on the Outhouse Studios in house printer.

It curves in because the camera wasn’t perfectly centered - I didn’t take the proper time on this one - sorry. But nevertheless, I think it gives an idea of how a print can look. I think the thin border of white is actually pretty cool and shows off the uniqueness of the digital medium.
