Chasing the Sun in Santorini LIMITED-EDITION CANVAS GICLEE

I thought it would be really easy to find the scene I was searching for - three blue-domed churches, together, surrounded by a landscape of white-washed buildings, on a tiny caldera island, in the middle of the Aegean Sea. Not so much! I spent several days looking for this iconic scene, continually getting distracted along the way by the narrow winding stairways, the aromatic smell of Greek food inviting me into tiny seaside cafes, and the unbelievable views that kept me endlessly awestruck. Once I spotted the three blue-domed churches, I knew I had to paint them with the sun setting in the background. An hour before the sun sets, masses of crowds descend on the western most tip of the island of Santorini, in a town called Oia, to secure a position to watch one of our planet’s most magical displays of day turning to night. As the last sliver of light descends under the horizon, there is a long collective silence followed by enthusiastic applause. Here we were, on the edge of the caldera, surrounded by people from all over the Earth, connected by a singular celestial event. Amazing! Our Signed and Numbered Canvas Giclees are printed on canvas and are the same size as the original painting. By printing on canvas, the colors achieved are bright and vivid, mirroring the intensity of Grant's originals. Our canvas giclees are stretched on heavy duty stretcher bars and are museum wrapped (the painting continues around the sides), adding a three dimensional studio feel and creating the option to hang them unframed for a more contemporary look. Each one is signed on the front and signed and numbered on the back. Our Signed and Numbered Canvas Giclee are in an edition of 100 (there are only 100 ever made).
