The original artwork "Peony Glitch" is a resin mixed media artwork consisting of a collage of a digitally enhanced photography of a peony flower embedded in multiple layers of resin poured onto acrylic and gold spray painted wood. It is finished with a clear resin sealant for a sleek, protective coating.

"Peony Glitch" is a mesmerizing resin mixed media collage that beautifully intertwines the digital with the physical. At its heart lies a digitally altered Peony flower, its natural soft rose hue enhanced with captivating copper accents and delicate pale yellow and orange shades. This vibrant flower is set against a backdrop of dirty pink acrylic paint, framed by a dramatic black vignette, creating a striking contrast. Symbolizing prosperity and honor, the Peony is presented in a state of electronic glitch, highlighting the delicate balance between life's beauty and the unpredictable nature of technology. This striking juxtaposition reflects life's inherent unpredictability, where even a small glitch can lead to significant changes, mirroring how our imperfections and vulnerabilities are integral to our humanity. Despite the chaos, like the resilient Peony, there is beauty in overcoming challenges, standing strong and graceful.

About the printing process:

Giclée Inkjet printing, a method where ink is meticulously sprayed onto paper in a fine dot pattern known as a half-tone, endows prints with a distinct fine art feel through its use of textured papers. This technique is celebrated for its ability to produce prints with deeply saturated colors, thanks to the vibrant pigments forming the inks. It offers a wide selection in paper thickness and texture, catering to various artistic preferences. The brilliance of Giclée prints lies in their vivid and saturated hues, setting them apart in the realm of art reproduction. Artists and illustrators favor Giclée prints for their precision in replicating the original artwork's medium. Furthermore, the archival quality of Giclée prints is remarkable, enduring approximately 40 years in daylight and up to 200 years in optimal dark storage conditions, preserving the legacy of the artwork for future generations.
