Spectral Meditations
DESCRIPTION
2021
In Color: Spectral Meditations for Healing is a portfolio containing seven full scale reproductions of monoprints by Los Angeles based artist Cheryl Humphreys.
The series presents all seven colors of the visible spectrum as visual aids for meditation.
Created by the artist as an experiential guide, the prints come folded with a key summarizing how each color affects our minds, moods and make-up. Humphreys invites the viewer to deepen their awareness of color and suggests its use to re-establish balance in the body, mind and spirit.
Each print undulates, emits and pulses through softly rolled gradients of color, its motif a signifier of the potential energy encapsulated inside.
Hang and frame for daily doses or keep safe on the book shelf for that next trip to the desert.
AUTHENTICATION
Signed by artist.
The work comes with a Certification of Authenticity signed by the Co-Founder of Tappan.
Framing & Mounting

Framing
Our frames are produced from the best quality wood, primarily from Italy. Each is custom cut and assembled by hand to fit your art. Hanging hardware included!
THIN GALLERY FRAME
This modern profile was designed for artists and photographers. Narrow on the front and deep on the sides, our slim mouldings provide a clean, sharp frame for your art, and allows all focus to be on your gorgeous work.
3/4" wide; 1 1/8" deep
UV - PROTECTIVE ACRYLIC
Our acrylic is more expensive than glass, but we use it because it’s clearer, far more impact resistant, and protects your art against UV rays. Framing-grade acrylic has become a new standard in framing because of its “clear” benefits.
THE FULL BLEED
Works are framed flush with the edge of your print without a mat. Request border modifications and spacers, which keep the work from touching the glass.
THE MAT
Adds a white core mat with a bevel cut opening to the edge of your print. If your work has a signature or edition numbering, we will automatically mat around it unless otherwise specified.
We use 4-ply, conservation-grade, acid-free mat board. We match whites and off-whites to your exact piece. Acid-free materials protect your art from yellowing or becoming brittle.
THE FLOAT
Floating a piece allows for a full view of the face and sides of the artwork. Floating is recommended for original drawings and paintings or any piece produced on specially trimmed paper.
