DESCRIPTION
Manual screen print on acid free 100% cotton paper with organic water-based ink | 2021
Carla Cascales Alimbau’s minimalist line drawings depict the sensual essence found in the curves of the nude female form. In this series, A tribute to femininity, Cascales Alimbau approaches each painting as a meditation, using each stroke as an opportunity to find inner balance, while each line arises from her connection to femininity and through the beauty, delicacy, and strength of nature. Using natural, earth tones — specifically the color of soil, from light sand to terracotta — as well as natural linen canvas and acid-free cotton paper with water-based inks, the works in this series are rooted in the respect for our environment and the recovery of natural materials as the basis for life.

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.
