Behind the Canvas
This painting came to me in a whirlwind of joyful expression. The woods in my Alaskan back yard have always provided me with endless inspiration. While I painted with the soft, silky pastels, a path emerged among the trees that was not there in my reference. I went with it. A meadow in the back appeared where a gravel pit was before. It was an enchanting experience.
I was reminded of how often we can reach a point in our journey where the growth and obstacles are impenetrable. Suddenly, at the point of giving up, a shift in the wind or light opens our eyes and we find a path, where there was none before.
Hang this painting wherever you might need a reminder of the enchanted path waiting for you. ~Tali
Production & Printing
While my family and I handle the design and creation of each artwork, the printing and shipping processes are sometimes managed by professional partners who share my commitment to quality and ethics. I carefully vet all printing partners to ensure they meet my own standards of locality, rigorous environmental and labor standards.
- 𝗘𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗰𝗮𝗹 𝗣𝗿𝗶𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴: My chosen printers use eco-friendly materials and practices, including sustainable inks and responsibly sourced wood and canvases. This commitment helps minimize the environmental impact of each print.
- 𝗙𝗮𝗶𝗿 𝗟𝗮𝗯𝗼𝗿 𝗣𝗿𝗮𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗰𝗲𝘀: I collaborate with printing facilities that adhere to fair labor practices, ensuring that every person involved in the process is treated with respect and paid fairly.
By outsourcing to trusted professionals, we can focus on creating unique, high-quality art while ensuring that every step of the production process aligns with ethical standards.
