Authenticity & Process
Each work is realized to an exacting standard — through considered process, archival materials, documented edition records, and serialized authentication
Edition Policy
Issued as a signed, numbered edition of fifteen — plus two Artist's Proofs, reserved and unavailable for acquisition. Upon completion, permanently retired.
CERTIFICATE OF AUTHENTICITY & SERIALIZED HOLOGRAMS
Each work is accompanied by a Certificate of Authenticity and a matched pair of serialized Hahnemühle holograms—one affixed to the certificate and its corresponding hologram affixed to the verso of the work. The serial number is also recorded in the ELLE PEA studio archive.
— Process
Each composition begins with two original source works: a photograph of an original fluid artwork created by the artist and an original photograph. The photographic sources are layered and developed through tonal adjustment and color refinement to create the final composition.
— Materials
Each work is realized as an archival pigment print on Hahnemühle Art Canvas Smooth, a 370 gsm natural-white poly-cotton canvas with a premium matte surface. Acid- and lignin-free, without optical brighteners, and compliant with ISO 9706 standards for age resistance, the canvas is selected for its exceptional tonal depth, detail, and archival stability. Each work is hand-signed on the verso and presented in a solid-wood frame.
— Certificate of Authenticity
Each work is accompanied by a signed Certificate of Authenticity documenting the artist, title, year, medium, dimensions, edition number, and unique Authentication ID. The numbered edition is strictly limited to fifteen, with two Artist’s Proofs retained outside the numbered edition and not offered for acquisition. Each certificate is authenticated through a corresponding serialized Hahnemühle hologram.
Two matching serialized holograms accompany each piece: one affixed to the certificate itself, and a second permanently affixed to the verso of the corresponding artwork — physically linking the certificate to the exact piece it authenticates, piece by piece.
Stated Plainly
- 1. Each composition is issued at 24 × 24 inches as a signed, numbered edition of fifteen.
- 2. Every numbered work is hand-signed, hand-numbered, and accompanied by its own Certificate of Authenticity with matching serialized holograms.
- 3. Two Artist’s Proofs are retained by the studio outside the numbered edition and are not available for acquisition.
- 4. No additional 24 × 24-inch works of the composition will be produced beyond the declared edition. The artist may later realize the composition at a different size or format as a separately declared edition, independently numbered and documented.
