Shimmering and ethereal, Michael Longo’s landscapes embody the timelessness of a master Impressionist’s artwork. Longo, who was born in Colorado and lives in Arizona, creates misty water gardens whose focus is their dreamlike atmosphere, rather than the technique which created them. Apprenticing with a wood carver and furniture maker, Longo applies space and depth elements he learned in sculpture to his artwork. Longo also expresses the tranquility of Vancouver’s harbors and rivers, which he often visits, in his art.
This giclée print delivers a vivid image with maximum color accuracy and exceptional resolution. The standard for museums and galleries around the world, giclée (French for “to spray”) is a printing process where millions of ink droplets are sprayed onto the paper’s surface. With the great degree of detail and smooth transitions of color gradients, giclée prints appear much more realistic than other reproduction prints. The high-quality paper (235 gsm) is acid free with a smooth surface.
