Printing note:
If you are planning on printing this page, we hope that you can do so in color. Also, please set your printer setting to landscape, this way you will not cut off the right edge of the pictures. We tried to make the 3 pictures large enough to show you excellent detail.
About the artist: Brought up on a small farm in
western Massachusetts, Pat attended Ringling School of Art and Design in Sarasota, Florida, where she earned a Bachelor of Arts degree. She has traveled extensively, including a 5 year stint in Mexico where
she further developed her unique style, rich, vibrant color pallet and architectural themes. Pat now splits her time between traveling and projects at her www.plumdoortile.com
studio in Florida where she paints and creates beautiful hand-painted tile murals. She is in the process of writing an illustrated travel journal of her adventures.
About the prints: These magical images are part of
Patricia Gawle's "Wondrous Places" series. The original paintings, accomplished in oil on canvas, reflect a world we wish we lived in. You don't just look at these paintings, they invite you in – to walk
through the grass, climb a banyan tree, swing your legs from a bridge, or board an awaiting boat on the beach. They have an essence beyond what can be seen – they are meant to be experienced.
More information about print sizes, framing, and pricing will follow the 3 pictures you are now about to see.... |
Here are the exact print sizes: "Blue Sky Red Roofs" 15 7/8" tall x 19 1/4" wide
"Longboat Bridge" 14 1/8" tall x 19 7/8" wide "Lighthouse Point" 15 5/8" wide x 18 1/4" tall This is the exact "image" size for each. About framing the prints:
Generally when someone chooses to then frame the print the framer leaves a 1/2" or so, white margin around the edge before the matt. The
matt could then add another 3" to 4" or so, to each side... Most framers would leave more matt at the bottom to "weight" the piece. In the first example this could mean a finished size
of: 15 7/8 + 1" + 6" = 23 7/8 19 1/4 +1" + 7" = 26 1/4 with margin and matt ...then the frame could add more... One has a lot of flexibility if you want it to end up a certain size...
just work backwards from the finished size and leave less / more margin or matt ... or no margin or matt.
