SNOWBOUND
This painting remembers a particularly snowy winter weekend in Gibsons. It’s not often that the snows come to this coastal town. When they do it’s an occasion. One you don’t pass up.
One such snowfall came in the winter of 1988. Joy and I bundled up for a walk along the seawall even as the snows kept coming with a vengeance. As we walked the snow became heavier, and by the time we made it to the waterfront our vision was limited by the extreme elements of the day.
Through the blizzard the silhouettes of two lonely birds became evident. Huddled against the onslaught of the storm, the two looked stoic and patient. In some way reminiscent of my first painting called “Old Man”, I am perhaps unconsciously impressed by the passive attitude of resident wildlife to the elements.
For me the image speaks of great patience and endurance even though the two coastal residents find themselves “Snowbound”.
My images predominantly sell as limited edition prints (either serigraph or giclée). As such, there is a wide range of pricing, too wide to list within this website. I’ll explain.
My original paintings, those that are still available for sale, range in price from $4,000.00 and up. In most cases though I have limited edition prints available of my images. Needless to say, they are far less expensive than the original paintings. If you are interested in a particular original painting, please contact me at your earliest convenience at info@edhillart.com
If it’s a limited edition print you’re interested in, let me explain. Because of modern day technologies, the image you are interested in can be giclée printed on either paper or canvas. The canvas images can be rolled up and shipped in a simple tube, or they can be stretched on a frame and shipped that way. So too, these images can be reproduced custom made to your wishes. In other words I can create a print in the size you desire, either to fill a small space, or to fill an entire wall. I’ve included below a photograph of a client’s dining room with two of my prints reproduced in a larger format.
You will see that some of my pieces shown on this web site, those lithograph reproductions and art cards, do have fixed prices. The rest of my images, however, can be priced only when I know specifically what you, the client, want. As such, if you are interested in a particular image, please contact me, Ed Hill, directly at info@edhillart.com
Once your order has been determined, you’ll be able to make payment through PayPal provided herein.
