This ready-to-hang, gallery-wrapped art piece features an illustration of two pieces of bacon. Prominent colors: White, orange, tan. Growing up in the idyllic Vermont countryside, Mary was encouraged by family and teachers to be an artist. At 18, she moved to Boston to study graphic design at the Massachusetts College of Art. The lure of her peaceful country home was too much and she returned to open an organic coffee and tea house with her brother. Coffee, tea and cafe culture has always been a great passion to me, as it tends to bring communities and fellow artists together for conversations and the bouncing of bold ideas. Today, Mary is known for working in a variety of media and styles from illustrative to classic and more. Giclee (jee-clay) is an advanced printmaking process for creating high-quality fine art reproductions. The attainable excellence that Giclee printmaking affords makes the reproduction virtually indistinguishable from the original piece. The result is the wide acceptance of Giclee by galleries, museums, and private collectors. Gallery wrap is a method of stretching an artist's canvas so that the canvas wraps around the sides and is secured in a hidden, wooden frame. This method of stretching and preparing a canvas allows for a frameless presentation of the finished painting.
