Description

Inspired by the slow dancing pines along the shore of Lake Tahoe, their branches curling in the sun like arms of meditative dancers. The original is not available and was created with collaged layers of various types of printmaking and many layers of iridescent acrylic painting.

Lake of the Sky is an edition of only 50 images printed on archival canvas and available in two sizes: 26 x 45.75 inches ($465 unframed) and 13.6 x 23.75 inches ($265 unframed).

Douglas E. Taylor received his Master of Fine Arts in printmaking from Washington University in St. Louis, Missouri. There, he first started combining several different printmaking processes in one monoprint (one-of-a-kind) and also started utilizing fragments of printmaking and Oriental rice papers as collage elements on mixed-media art. He builds layer upon layer of collage and acrylic painting, creating rich textured surfaces. He is inspired by the magic illusions found in nature.
