Most
of my illustrations are inspired by landscapes that are influential to
me both for their beauty and relevance in my own life as a climber. Some
of my
illustrations are rather literal representations of specific landscapes,
while others are more figurative. As you may have noticed, most of my
art is marked with lettering or text. This style of mine has developed
over the years out of my love for
book-arts and my own journaling. At some point I started
incorporating these influences into my art, and believe that is
represents
the
propensity for these exquisite landscapes to elicit powerful human
emotions. Sometimes this text is legible while other times it is
simply jumbled letters or words with less literal meaning. Most of the
time, it is unimportant what the text says. Instead, the text is
commonly used as conceptual design alluding to a connection to the
landscape which transcends its beauty. The text is representative of
something deeper - a unique, inquisitive human experience. In this way,
I hope to share something different that a beautiful landscape
photograph cannot accomplish. The laborious and sometimes obsessive
quality of the lettering and details in my illustrations are synonymous
with my own obsessions and yearnings for these wonderful places.
About the Prints
My artist proof prints (AP) are created by adding original, hand-drawn additions to giclee (zhee-klay) prints. A giclee print is a high-quality, archival
reproduction. Each component of the reproduction process, including
the paper, the ink, and the printing, is of the utmost quality. The
combination of exceptional pigment based inks and thick, archival paper
produces a
print almost indistinguishable from the original. Furthermore, the
archival printing process maintains the quality of the print - especially if it is framed well. Because I add additional hand-drawn components, each print is labeled an artist proof and is essentially a unique, one-of-a-kind print. Each print is hand-signed and labeled AP.
How To Purchase
Please
look below each image for options. Immediately below the image is a
description of the art: title, size (in inches), and price of originals
and prints. Below that is a tab for choosing the type you're interested
in. Many of the
originals are already sold. If so, it is listed as "SOLD" below the
image. Make sure you choose the correct option depending on your
preference for framed or unframed. Everything is handled through
Paypal. After
receiving the payment, Paypal notifies me, and I will ship your art. Due to the time consuming nature of building the frames please allow up to two weeks for shipment and one week for unframed prints. If you have any
questions,
please contact me at craigmuderlak@gmail.com. Please enjoy.
International Shipping
If you live outside of the United States, the answer is yes, I can ship to you. However, please contact me before purchasing! Email me first so I can provide you with a shipping estimate and we can then handle payment. Unframed prints cost about $40 to ship to Europe and $70 framed, however this is only an estimate.
