Willow World - Square Version

By John Beck

This art was created in 2007. It is a companion piece to my Then and Now. ARTIST NOTE: This work is of course inspired by my love for Japanese wood block prints. I remember reading Shogun for the first time and learning of The Willow World. That book and the traditional Japanese wood blocks were the inspiration for this print. - JB This art also has a rectangular version. The rectangular version is not just cropped, but the art has been reworked to fit the ratio, The styles this art is offered are as follows: 1 - Prints on fine art archival matte paper attached to museum board (also known as gaterboard). The museum board is black and 3/16 inches thick. 2 - Prints on fine art archival matte paper, with a snow white mat, and elegant black frame. The print also has a glazing (acrylic glass): conservation reflection control. 3 - Prints on artisan archival canvas, thick stretched & mounted with professional taped backing & wire hanger. The canvas edge is black.
