RAW
SILK PRINTS
(Click the image above to see a close-up detail.)
back
to top After
much experimenting Faery Medicine has achieved success in the
process of printing on raw silk. The effect is rich lasting
color and a depth that is truly magical. No paper print has
ever come this close to the qualities of the Faery Medicine
originals. Every print is slightly different and a work of art
in itself because of the varying textures and lack of total
control over the silk. The characteristics of the fabric next
to the detail of the illustrations are breathtaking and totally
unique. Click to view Raw
Silk Prints.
The
8x10 Raw Silk Prints are part of a limited
edition of 300 for each image. The image area for the 8x10 prints
is approximately 3.75"x5" depending on the dimensions
of the original illustration. 8x10 silk prints are $75 each.
Hand-embellished prints are available by request for $100. Contact

The
11x14 Raw Silk Prints are part of a limited
edition of 200 for each image. The image area for the 11x14
prints is approximately 7"x9" depending on the dimensions
of the original illustration. 11x14 silk prints are $150 each.
Hand-embellished prints are available by request for $200. Contact

Each
print is checked for quality, signed and numbered by Kristen
and comes with a certificate of authentication. All are mounted
on black silk velvet boards and ready for framing.
Because monitors vary, prints may differ slightly from colors
seen on the computer screen. Not all images in the Faery Medicine
Boutique have Raw Silk Prints. Click to view Raw
Silk Prints.
THE
PROCESS - After fringing, taping the edges, and applying
a paper backing to the silk, each piece of fabric is hand-painted
with two coats of a special primer that accepts ink. Prints
are individually printed and checked for color quality and accuracy.
When approved, the protective taping and paper backing is removed.
The prints are raw and slightly irregular in shape and texture
- a nice contrast next to the details of the illustrations.

FRAMING
- These silk prints are unframed. To maintain the quality
and longevity it is recommended that they be framed with spacers
so that they do not touch the glass. Back

COTTON RAG PRINTS
Back
by popular demand! Like the Raw Silk Prints, these are Giclée
prints as well, meaning that they are created with a fine spray
of ink that is capable of getting all the detail. Each limited
edition Giclée is individually printed, approved, signed,
and numbered by the artist. Edition size on most images is 500.
Cotton rag paper and pigment-based ink have been carefully chosen
to create a beautiful, lasting print. Image area is approximately
4.5"x5" and is placed pleasingly on 8"x10"
archival cotton rag paper with a larger margin of white space
at the bottom. Cotton Rag Prints are $25.00 each.
