'Across the Lands Between' Giclée Print
I usually work in a traditional Japanese Ukiyo-e style, adapting games to look as if they existed in 1700s or 1800s Japan. But this game glowed with so much of its own unique, gorgeous imagery that I was reluctant to 're-skin' it in Japanese brush strokes.
Instead I returned to another style I often use, based on the works of Ivan Bilibin. Bilibin is well known for combining traditional folk imagery from medieval Eastern Europe with Art Nouveau and Arts and Crafts design from the early 20th century. The result is something that feels both modern and ancient at the same time.
This print is a tribute to an amazing game and also to the work of Ivan Bilibin.
NOTE - You can choose between two paper types for your print:
1) Handmade Japanese Paper: Created by the Kikuchi Studio in Ehime Japan, this paper features a lovely mulberry texture and rough deckled edges. The overall effect makes our giclée prints look like real historical Japanese prints. I'm very proud of these!
2) Western Paper: This is a high quality 80 lb cover paper, similar to hot press watercolor paper. My art prints look stunning on its smooth, matte finish. This is the paper I usually bring to conventions, so if you have purchased art from me at a live event, you probably have this paper style.
Every print is signed by the artist.
Measures 12x17 inches.
This print looks great in three standard 16 x 20 frames (US, Canada) or 40 x 50 cm (everywhere else).
