MEDIUM: Serigraph on Clayboard PRINT TYPE: Mixed Media consisting of lithography and 6 hand pulled color silkscreens CONDITION: Good Condition, Never Framed IMAGE SIZE: 23" X 15" RELEASE: 1997 "PANEL EDITION" also known as "CLAYBORD" In response to the demand in today's market for fine art that does not require glazing or glass, master printers developed serigraphy on "claybord". Claybord is made from a base layer of Masonite (hard-pressured wood particles and glue compound) that is coated with a layer of white acid free clay, which is baked and sanded onto the surface. The clay acts much like a layer of artist's "gesso" and provides a smooth porous surface for painting or printmaking. During the serigraphy process, ink is applied one color at a time by hand. Once the layers of inks forming the image have built up and been completed, a layer of UV protective coating is applied to help reduce the damaging effects of light on the image over time. Then the image is coated with one layer of varnish at a time, until eight to ten layers have been completed. The varnish layers are silk-screened onto the image to represent the brush strokes apparent in the original painting. These textured varnish coats give the artwork an appearance very similar to an original oil painting on canvas. The varnish layers also protect the surface of the art from dust and moisture. The finished panels can then be framed without glass. The serigraphs on panel are a terrific alternative for collectors not prepared for the cost of an original oil painting but prefer the look of art without the reflection of glass.
