Tim Maguire - New Works |
8 Dec 2009 0 comments |
Tim Maguire has spent the last few years exploring new territories in regards to the making of original prints. His series of digital pigment prints combine recent technological advances in printmaking with his innate skill as an artist in making the plates that are the basis for these works. Here is a brief description of how these stunning artworks are made:
Tim Maguire produces these works in Paris - they are original prints - no photographic reproduction of a painting is involved. The first step involves the hand painting by the artist of several clear plates - these relate to a single colour value in the printing process. These plates are then scanned into a printer where the images are superimposed and assigned various colour values by the artist. The resulting image is then printed using high quality digital pigment inks and archival quality paper. The works are then editioned and signed by Maguire.
Two new works - 'Berries and Sky' and 'Poppies II' deserve special attention. Each work is 120 x 180 in size - the sense of scale achieved is similar to Maguire's large paintings but the textual qualities of the paper are unique to these pieces. The numbered edition is limited to 10 of each work.
If you are interested in viewing these works in person in Sydney please let me know.

If you are interested in collecting John Olsen's classic series of 'Frog' prints you will be pleased to know that he has released two new beautiful coloured etchings - 'Lily Pond' and 'Lily Pond 2'. These works can be seen in the John Olsen section of the stockroom.
I am interested in selling earlier Olsen works from the 'Frog' series so please let me know if you have any that you are contemplating putting up for sale - any other works by Olsen would of course also be of interest!

Hi Lisa
Yes, 'Kakadu' is a great John Olsen print!
A couple of weeks ago someone sent me an enquiry saying that they were interested in selling two John Olsen prints - 'Hanging Tree Frog' and 'Camels'. Sadly no contact e-mail or phone number came through! Can you please contact me again!
I love the frog etchings......

Hi Justin,
I have been collecting limited edition prints from Australian artists for 10 years and was most active from 1997 to 2003. I have more than 20 Leunig prints, many of my favourites have been framed but I still have some (also love them) but am concerned about storing them in humid Singapore. Would be keen to explore.
Hi Lisa
Thank you for getting in touch - it looks like you have a great collection of work! I look forward to talking with you about some options in regards to your situation.
I have "Kakadu"... lovely piece, my only John Olsen piece.
