Impressions of Chinatown
IMPRESSIONS OF CHINATOWN
Victoria's chinatown is the oldest in North America and one of the citys most popular tourists attractions. The Gates Of Harmonious Interest seen here, is at the entrance to the main shopping area which offers it;s patrons fresh produce, unusual gifts and exotic food.
I used a semi-abstract style with interpretive outlines in this piece to capture the curious magical quality of  the market.

ORIGINAL PAINTING:
30" x 40" acrylic  on 3/4" clean-edge canvas.  ( 28x38 face dimension )
A clean-edge painting can simply be hung "as is" for a modern contemporary look, or by using an optional frame that suits your decor.

GICLÉE PRINT
Giclée prints are the best type of reproductions available today.
They are supplied with a double acid free mat and foam backing board. All you need is a common 16x20" frame.

Mat options are:
    silver gray with dark blue inner mat - nice traditional look that fits well.  A mid to dark colored frame looks best
    dark blue on dark blue -  dramatic and bold look, very powerful. Best with a light colored frame like metallic or wood.
    white on white - traditional gallery choice, classy and elegant.  Goes with all decors. Best with a mid to medium dark frame.
