"Rise and Dance I" Limited Edition Fine Art Print

Painted/named from a poem I wrote. I'm not afraid to note this: this is one of my very favorite paintings I've ever created (and I don't usually play favorites.) This is the first of this Rise and Dance series and when I finished it, I just knew I had to make more of them.

These lightning scenes were created, more or less, from the notion of female rage against society: beauty standards, sexist comments, inequality, harassment, the pressures young women face of having/not having families and other injustices we women deal with on a daily basis that aren't talked about enough. I searched for hours and couldn't find a poem that represented what I wanted these images to silently strike in one's mind, so I wrote one.

I don't usually create multiples of one image, as I think it can water-down the sentiment, but it felt pertinent that I create multiples of these; I just couldn't stop painting them. It felt like they were flowing out of my fingertips. While I've attempted, and failed, to portray lightning dozens of times, I feel I got it right with these: white hot strikes. And pink! Making the storms in dusty purples and magenta pink was symbolic, and very intentional. I want my collectors to see this image and feel the connection to other like-minded women. We're all on the same side, after all- the right one.

Fine art giclee print, specifically designed and chosen to best mirror the original oil painting.

DETAILS

-Limited edition of only 50 prints.

-Signed and numbered by the artist, Kayla DeVito. Comes with a card of authenticity.

-Printed in the USA using the highest museum quality thick, archival, lightly textured fine art paper.

-To ensure no part of the painting is cut off, sizes will not be standard framing sizes, and will instead be sized upon the exact ratio of the original.

-The size choice is the print size. Each has an additional 1/2 inch border allowance for the perfect matting.

-Colors and exposure may vary from monitor to monitor. These prints have been tested and edited and reprinted numerous times each to get the exact coloring, from screen to physical item. Please know that each print will align as closely to the original painting as we could physically manage, no matter the difference in monitors.

OPTIONAL MATTING

To save time (and money), you can choose to have your print matted before delivery. Our mat windows are completely custom-sized for each print, and the outer frame dimensions are cut for a standard frame size. This means that you will not need to have your print professionally framed if you don't want to! You can absolutely do it yourself by purchasing any standard sized frame with the dimensions given. These frames are commercially available at most home goods stores, pre-made at frame shops and found readily available in numerous online shops.

We have chosen the matting color(s) that best compliment each print. Please see photos on this listing for your choice.

Mat Color Options:

•Off White

•Date

•Raven
