Fast forward a few months and everything is good to go. I delivered 10 original prints to The Peacock's Feather over the weekend, and I'm excited about the partnership. We worked together to decide which images would be great to start with, and ultimately I decided it would be nice to feature a lot of my shots from Medicine Hat's historic clay district (and naturally my Around the Hat series).
These 10 framed prints have been specially made for sale in The Peacock's Feather, and they're also the largest prints that I've ever made available for purchase. Each print is 16x24" and mounted in a 20x28" white gallery style frame.
Much like when I exhibited my work with Thinking Hat last fall, seeing many of my images in this size was a first. The rich colours, textures, and details are only more vibrant in this scale, and that's also due in part to professional grade printing that I had done in Toronto to produce these. It was also the same printer who helped me create the acrylic panels for my airport art wall commission.
At the end of the day I'm excited to be trying something new. Instead of producing everything custom and to order, I'm excited to provide a more ambitious option that's good to go. With the large scale photographs ready and framed, it's as simple as visiting the store to see what you like - and my photography is in good company too.
I'm overjoyed to see my work hanging in a place as unique and original as The Peacock's Feather. I couldn't be happier to be consigning with this great local business on North Railway (right across the street from the historic train station) and I think we're a good match. I want to encourage everyone to go down and have look at my new prints on display and explore this amazing vintage shop.
