A time of war?
"America," from My Americana Posters Gallery
Dear Friends Old and New,
Here we are in a time of international tragedy, amidst so many daily prognostications that "things are going to get a lot worse." There is an urgency and an ominousness in the air. We do little things each day in the spirit of doing what must be done, what we can do in the face of it all. I find I can look at these posters in my Americana Posters gallery and, honestly, the miracle of our founding and 200+ years of often passionate attempts by our citizens to 'build a more perfect union,' seems more and more one of unfathomable proportions, thanks be to the Almighty. In this poster, you see two verses, one in blue and one in white. The verse expressed in white ("Father of every grace...") was written by my grandfather on the occasion of the end of WW2. I am gratified to have included the 'updated' version here in this patriotic poster image.
Here's a gift idea: The 'Good Almost Anytime' print--screenprints as gifts: Consider very unusual poster prints...Beach Posters, I call them. See them in my Beach Poster Gallery: New Jersey, Long Island, Florida, Chesapeake Bay, and California. Each poster includes actual sand gathered by yours truly from the beaches of that particular locality, then adhered to the poster, itself; a distinctive poster and excellent gift idea at any time of year. I will sign your print before shipping. Note, the Rhode Island Beach Poster early on sold thru two printings and is regrettably, no longer available. I can assure you, your chosen recipient will like a very unusual Beach Poster Print.
If, when purchasing a print, custom-ordering your matte and frame is important to you, selections from any of my galleries will encourage you to experiment with various styles so you are very happy when the work arrives at your door. Check out selections from my Photo Gallery, or perhaps Painting Gallery. As you will see--when customizing, pick a gloss paper or matte, perhaps a metal (Aluminum) or acrylic-- even a canvas wrap. Then choose a preferred size. Sizes vary with the selection and depend on the quality of digital image resolution. Add a matte and frame of your liking; many to choose from. Include a means of framing and hanging so your work will arrive snappy and buttoned-up, ready to hang. Take advantage of the special framing features on this website. These features add excitement and joy to the print-buying experience.
Art prints arrive excellently packaged, in buttoned-up condition, ready to hang. Money back guarantee...if not completely satisfied. Stick with it. Experiment...see what is possible. Your time will be worth it. If you are lucky, you will receive your print in week or ten days-- notwithstanding (still present) Covid-related production and shipping bottlenecks. Why not augur in Spring 2022 with a new art print?
By the way...have you ever purchased an art print? As the month of March races by with Spring not-far off, is time now to give it a try?
Americana posters, how to brand your poster campaign: If, in the spirit of the times, you like the idea of a patriotic poster, one that attempts to capture something critical about the essence of our Democratic Republic--and if you own a small business, large business, or captain a non-profit organization-- and would like to make branded posters available to your staff, employees and customers, I would be pleased to add your organization's logo discretely in the lower right hand corner...when you place your order. Contact me to discuss. An excellent way to 'get the word out.' My own view is this-- since our Founding precepts, Fathers, documents and distinguishing national myths are under attack in many dim-witted sectors of society, I will continue to promote these images in the weeks ahead. Consider purchasing yours, now.
Here are other categories, themes, mediums...prints of which you may find helpful, especially as the season of gift-giving approaches: Painting prints, faith, city skylines, beachposters, photos, Instagrams, drawings, limited editions and fine art originals; Take a look!
As we approach Spring, the creation of many new oil-crayon sketches and the rediscovery of my LightHouse Series paintings on wooden shingles continue to resonate with viewers, fans and patrons. You may find my new NFT (Non-fungible Token) art of interest, seen here on Rarible. Videos can be seen now on YouTube. Find a variety of sound files on Soundcloud. Lastly, hear art blogs on Anchor. All of this can be seen on Linktree.
Thanks very much for notes, comments, curiosity, and patronage. I will remark in closing, that writing these blogs is always a creative challenge, but is useless as a marketing and promotional exercise. If someone finds it, receives it, reads it and gets something out of it, great. But writing blogs? Not essential to anything in my experience.
Around the world we are praying for peace extra-hard, right now. We pray for Ukrainians (#ukraine), most especially; for our leaders, our Congress, and most importantly for our fellow citizens, that we might be able to make a contribution to what is good even as we persevere, each day. In treacherous days, we pray for Peace.
