The choices:
Dave Peterson art works.
Most of the paintings or photography
in this presentation are reproductions of originals by Dave
Peterson a.k.a. D Glenn Peterson.
All reproductions are produced personally by Dave in
his studio .... not by an outside source such as a print
publisher.
The Master or original painting: This painting is the first or original piece all others are patterned after. Often Dave uses many different methods to develop the master. Click for detail. It may be an oil painting or a watercolor and it may be enhanced with numerous mixed media such as pencil or even crayon. In most cases an "original" may have extensive digital work involved.
Image sizes: Each description states the size of the
master. Other smaller or larger but proportionate sizes are
offered to allow clients a better selection
to fit their needs. The sizes vary
from subject to subject based on the requirements for reduction
from the original. Click
for more.
Edition quantity
limitations:
When we indicate a certain quantity as an edition this does not mean there will
be that many produced! It only indicates the maximum number of images. Each
print is made as ordered so there may only be a few sold from an edition. Though signed editions are not numbered they are
closed with the number listed next to
each image in the site
Signing:
Signing may be initials, the last name Peterson or the full name
Dave Peterson. Some pre 2004 prints may be signed D Glenn
Peterson.
With numerous subjects, especially canvas, Dave does not sign the
image face because he feels this distracts from the subject. In
this case the image will be signed on the border or back.
Painted Reproductions:
These are canvas prints that have been repainted with oils and
are nearly an exact duplicate of the master. There is no set
number as a reproduction level however there will be few due to
the extended time required for the painting. Each edition
painting is hand signed on the face and numbered on the back. Click for more information.
Media:
Most watercolor prints are printed on 100% cotton acid
free archival handmade watercolor paper that is 140 pound.
Most oil
paintings and many abstracts are printed on canvas unless specified you want them on
paper. The canvas is of archive standards and
resists sagging. It has a medium fine weave.
Periodically we use specialty papers.
Nomex: A high grade fibrous
archive paper that has a slight off white parchment look. This Dupont/Nomex® based
media meets the requirements of most local U.S. Fire Marshal and
International regulations including UL Flammability Standard 094
and NFPA 701. It is also rip, fray and crease resistant.
Pearl: The paper is pearlecent and allows the inks to reflect
hues. It has a satin finish and linen texture.
All
prints are personally printed in studio by D Glenn Peterson with
the Giclee process. Tthe surfaces have been UV treated which would increase
this life by 30% to 50%. These standards equal or exceed other
printing processes and are considered museum or archival quality.
Open Release: These are subjects that are not numbered
or in any form of limited quantity. The release may include use
of the image in numerous formats such as prints, decorative
plates, screen savers, publications or gift items. For those who
invest in art it is of benefit to have open edition works
available to the general public. The more people who display a
certain image the more recognition develops for an artist which
builds the demand and value of special works such as original
paintings and limited editions.
Every painting may be released within another category whether it is or is not stated as such in this presentation or a disclosure.
