This ready to hang, gallery-wrapped art piece features a rocky desert landscape in the center of the frame. Peter Potter was born in Germany, and started painting at the age of 9. He discovered his interest in graphic artworks, especially American art, while studying 4 years at an art and design college. He worked in several advertising agencies, and traveled through North America for many years, taking home thousands of impressions inspiring him for his artworks. His techniques were influenced by painters like Vincent Van Gogh, Salvador Dali and Edward Hopper, and also by the photos and posters of the National Geographic Magazine. Giclee (jee-clay) is an advanced printmaking process for creating high quality fine art reproductions. The attainable excellence that Giclee printmaking affords makes the reproduction virtually indistinguishable from the original piece. The result is wide acceptance of Giclee by galleries, museums, and private collectors. Gallery wrap is a method of stretching an artists canvas so that the canvas wraps around the sides and is secured a hidden, wooden frame. This method of stretching and preparing a canvas allows for a frameless presentation of the finished painting.
