- Karen offers a variety a ways to add value, collectability and beauty to her limited edition giclees. One way she does this is by adding a hand-drawn, one-of-a-kind remarque or "artist's mark" to the print. This short video demonstrates the process of adding a remarque to one of the first reproductions of her newest painting "Russian River Steelhead".
Nice work and another informative video - I watched this over a year ago as I contemplated Giclees, embellishing and remarquing
Thank you
Hi,
My wife and I met you and your husband at the Laguna Beach Sawdust Festival a few years back.
We purchased one of your inspiring artworks of a Swordfish.
We have gotten so many compliments on it hanging in our living room.
We are blessed that you are relocated and happy.
You and your husband make an incredible team, we wish you much success in the coming new year!
Surfer51 Thanks so much for your comment! I really appreciate it. I'm working on a couple of billfish right now--you may want to follow along on my Facebook page. Email me at Karen@KarenTalbotArt.com with a picture of my piece hanging in your living room, and I'll send you a coupon code for use on any future purchase. :-)
Doing my first remarques this week on my winning PA Waterfowl Stamp print artist proofs! I’m excited but also nervous!
Thank you Karen so much! Your work is beautiful, and your explanation appealing and clear. Thank you so much for your interest in sharing your knowledge!
Very Nice!
Hi Karen, I stumbled on your videos looking for framing ideas and inadvertently learned about Gicle and Remarque! These are great informative videos, and your work is beautiful!
Very cool - and I’ve just leant was Remarque is. Thanks Karen
Thanks so much! I look forward to producing more of these short videos soon! -Karen
Thank you, Karen. I now understand what a remarque is!
Beautiful work.
Thanks for the question, @Gregory Clarke-Johnsen. I usually use pencil and pen & ink for my remarques. I most often add the remarque to the paper itself, but some clients request it on the mat. When I add color to a print, I refer to is as hand-embellishing. In my catalog, a remarque is separate from hand-embellishing, but many clients order both. While I generally tend to only embellish and remarque limited edition giclee prints, I have certainly seen other artists remarque open editions. -K
I do offer hand-embellishing on my limited edition giclees. In most cases, I use the same media I used on the original when I hand-embellish, and usually I am using the same substrate (i.e., an original watercolor on watercolor paper is printed as a limited edition giclee on watercolor paper and hand embellished with watercolor). Because of the quality of the giclee printing process and the archival pigment inks, a well cared for reproduction may actually outlive an original. Hope that helps.
Thanks for the info!
Thanks, @Jonathan Kis-Lev! I really appreciate the comment. :-)
Would it be appropriate to remarque a painting of a sailboat with the lake it was taken on?
Hi Karen, I enjoyed your video on remark,, and have a three questions.
You mentioned that you added color to the giclee... considering the delicate nature of a giclee surface what material did you use add color,,, eg. colored pencils., acrylics?
Is retouching the art piece,, say with additional color considered a remark ?
I noticed that you added a remark to a giclee from a numbered set.
Have you ever heard of just adding the remark to a open edition print, to make the print unique.
Hi again, I see that some artists paint over canvas giclees. , knowing that oils are acidic and need a good ground , do you have any idea what medium could be used over a canvas giclee with longevity in mind ? The few that I have seen look like they are painted with oils....Thanks again.
opps...my wife just informed me that it is not a Swordfish but a Billfish.
