Bill inspects output from the printer, canvas media |
I also believe that if an artist desires to attract serious collectors they should aim towards exclusivity. This means that the art itself (its creative qualities) should reflect strong originality and uniqueness. Further, its production should be very limited in scope (few copies– not mass produced). This last aspect is what has prescribed for me a path towards very limited editions (VLE). What I refer to as "very limited editions" is the production of my images on archival grade canvas, using archival inks and archival treatment and mounting processes. Further, these editions are generally limited to runs of only 10 to 20 copies. I will also be producing "extremely limited editions" (ELE) running only three or less copies. Ultimately, I have plans for producing certain images in only a single, unique copy, parallel to what painters refer to as "original art."
