After discussions between Titus Welliver, his representative Debbe Goldstein and Stewart & Stewart, the artist created four maquettes conceived specifically for his fine art print editions with Stewart & Stewart. "Aslan's Rock" is the second edition created from the maquettes. The maquettes were created on gesso prepared Dibond panels, slightly smaller than the printed image for the planned editions. Upon selection of the maquette for this second collaboration, the selected image was digitally captured and underwent adjustments in size, aspect ratio and significant digital manipulation to flatten the image by eliminating most of the surface texture for a more stylized presentation and a more stark figure/ground relationship. This could only be achieved with recent imaging technology providing artists vast manipulative capabilities and expansion of their artistic vision.
After the artist's initial approval of the manipulated image file and a final printed proof, the final image file was used to create an original, limited edition fine art print on premium, Somerset Museum Rag paper (archival, 100% cotton, acid-free).
The completed image was made possible through the artist's incorporation of digital technology in realizing his personal vision, without the limitations and compromises associated with traditional printmaking techniques.
