Dye-sublimation prints on Aluminum

Over the years I’ve learned different mediums in Northwest native art, and as a artist, I’ve enjoyed printing most of all. Jewelry is probably my second most favorite. The newest printing process called dye-sublimation printing has caught my eye because of the vividness of the colors. I don’t believe after printing the water base ink on the subs straight, (aluminum) gives the process the credit it deserves. In other words seeing the high quality print in person, can an individual appreciate the process.

I created a number of new prints, and a few of my limited edition prints with this new medium just to see the effect the process has on the designs. Each print is signed by me to show you that I am still learning, still continuing to labor at creating my own works of art. This process is time consuming, and like other printing processes there are ghosts that creep in when just when you feel you have it licked.
