muted landscape #4
It’s been a while since I put up the companion images to this muted landscape #4 , here , here , and here but the series finally came back from the framers and they all got shipped off to Parliment House in Sydney just yesterday. Oh my goodness getting all these done was a bit of an epic ….. and then there was an overbooking at the venue so we’ve all had to wait an extra week to put up our show…... it was all meant to be on the wall on the 4th but now won’t open till next week….... so all the frantic rushing to get it all done in time was all a bit nuts now that I think about it.
Anyway after a lot of flaffing about with how best to articulate the images to best advantage I finally printed them myself on to 325 gsm warm toned Fabrizoni finest watercolour paper with my very nice Epson photostylus R1800 printer. Then each pair …. there are four in total…. has been double mounted in a mid grey matt with a glossy black box frame. Each print is A3 in size and the final dimensions of each framed pair is 106.5cms by 53 cms. So only mediumly large in the end. The mid grey tone of the matt reads as mid green in relation to the prints themself and the whole effect is of a very muted but mysterious melancholic beauty…. I’m very pleased with them.
So if your in Sydney next week pop into Macquarie Street and have a look…. there are four of these Broken Landscapes and another new doubled work to boot….... Landscape for Piet Mondrian #1 and #2… I’ll post about that set later on

Beautiful! They’re going to look fabulous on the wall!!
Juilee Pryor replied
thanks Mel…. the screen shots here on RB really only indicate what the actual peices look like…. on the screen they are absolutely photographic but framed and finished and in real life… they are really just artworks…no question about it…. I’m very happy with the framing as well….. it really makes a big difference to a work…... and I’m soooo happy you like them….. :)
Nvision Ink
Wow I like what you have done here very interesting and nice!!
Juilee Pryor replied
thanks Neil…. they are so lovely printed on to this heavy weight watercolour paper… the ink is absorbed into the body of the paper and the print looks organic with the texture of this very fine paper…. normally with inkjet printing the ink lies on the surface so I find that a lot digital images look fairly flat as a result…. took a bit of printing out to nail it though….. but I am happy in the end… thanks for your lovely comment…..:)

Juilee Pryor replied
hi michaledouglass….I wish you could see them in real life…. they look pretty neat….. sensual almost…. with the muted tones and lusious paper….. might have to do some more of these…...:)
Franka Zaumseil
that looks great! well done!
Juilee Pryor replied
hi Juni and thanks….. glad you like these images…..:)
Lawford
Very Nice. Are these for sale in a gallery or on display only?
Good luck either way.
Juilee Pryor replied
hi Lawford… the actual real works are going to hand in Parliment House in Sydney till the 19th of December…. they will be for sale but not blantently so… and they won’t be cheap and cheerful jobs like what you get here…. it’s serious art and they have a corresponding price tag….. but still I’ve got a feeling that they are going to sell…. fingers crossed for that anyhow… the framing cost a mint….:)
AndyGii
I think you got it right Juilee
Juilee Pryor replied
thanks Andy…. it’s always a gamble making serious work…. costs heaps and you never know if it will find an audience but sometimes when the spirit moves you then you just have to make the damned work regardless….. :)
alistair mcbride

Patricia L. Ba...
These will look amazing on a plain wall. Any color will set them off.
Juilee Pryor replied
thanks Pat…. they are a little bit sombre but they also invite contemplation…. which I want in my artwork…..
Bill Proctor
