Mark Penney, printmaking in Ucluelet
The first print-job with the new Breathing Color Lyve canvas is complete. I got a profile from tech support ( I didn’t see any Lyve profiles posted online yet). They offer a custom profile service, very impressive although I usually make my own.
I’m impressed with the canvas, the weave looks similar to PremierArt’s water resistant canvas with a smoother gesso finish. The raw canvas is dead flat ( totally matte) before the laminate is applied. The prints come alive as the laminate cures.
These images are custom sized and gallery wrapped for the installation, stretched on 2″ custom cedar stretchers, and by all accounts; very juicy.
