Hello and thanks for stopping by my website. As the holidays are approaching, and Louisville is just around the corner, I'm excited to introduce four new prints! I'm also excited to be offering these prints in a new print form called giclee. The giclee printing process was introduced about 15 years ago and produces a print which is printed on watercolor paper, with a process using eight inks and results in a piece which is as close to the original as possible. The inks are actually sprayed on to the paper. When the process first came out, costwise it was far beyond my affordability, but technology has advanced so to now make it much more affordable for everyone. The result of the giclee method offers a beautiful brilliantly printed piece. Simmental Winter Solstice was painted for the 2009 Simmental Jr. Nationals, held in Columbus, IN. The piece features Simmental Cattle wintered in a cornfield belonging to Silvertown Simmentals.
Sweet Southern Comfort was painted for the Chi Jr. Nationals held in Murfreesburg, TN this past summer. The piece is set in the pasture of my dear friends, Vicki and Quentin Smith of Lebanon, TN. This piece was also featured at the Angus Jr. Nationals. Shorthorns in Illinois was painted for the 2009 Shorthorn Jr. Nationals held in Springfield, IL. Because Angus Blessings was such a successful piece, I've had a lot of requests for round pieces, and this was done for the Shorthorn
breeders. Finally, I have something totally new to offer. Here's Looking at Ewe was done from a piece commissioned for friends, Tony and Kathy Lankford of TN. This is my first endeavor with sheep.
Also, be sure to check out my Christmas cards for the holidays! May all of you have a wonderful holiday season and may your coming year be filled with blessings. Thank you for all the blessings, which you've shared and bestowed on me! - CJ |
