"Howlin' At The Moon" presents a captivating image of a lone wolf perched atop a rugged outcrop, its head thrown back in a poignant howl. The composition is anchored by a dramatically large and detailed moon that bathes the scene in a ghostly, silvery light. The moon itself symbolizes the idea of nature's cycles and the concept of timelessness, as it has witnessed countless such howls through the eons.
Around the wolf, gnarled trees twist toward the sky, their branches forming a dark, almost fractal lace against the moonlit backdrop. This creates a feeling of isolation, as the wolf communicates across the vast wilderness, calling out to its pack, while also expressing its solitary strength.
The colors are moody and monochromatic, relying on shades of blue and grey, suggesting a cool or cold atmosphere, both literally and metaphorically. This gives the impression of the wolf's cry being not just one of communication, but also one that resonates with the chill of loneliness, the stark beauty of the wilderness, and the intrinsic wildness of the creature itself.
Symbolically, the wolf's howl can be interpreted as a primal cry to the universe and as a statement of existence, while also calling for connection. Wolves are symbols of freedom, wildness, and social connections within their packs, and this painting represents the duality of their nature – the need for the pack contrasted against the nobility of the individual's solitary existence. It speaks to the human condition, using the wolf as a metaphor, to reflect upon themes of solitude, yearning, and the search for meaning under the vastness of the cosmos.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is All-Over-Print (AOP)?
All-Over Print (AOP) is a printing method that uses dye-sublimation to print a design onto polyester. During the dye sublimation process the dye is absorbed into the fabric. Since, it is not printed on the surface, like most t-shirts, it provides for a fantastic soft-to-the-touch feel and superior breathability.
AOP is a more time consuming method than screen printing or direct-to-garment (DTG) printing, so the prices are higher and the production times are longer, but the results are most definitely worth it.
Advantages of AOP:
The design won't peel off, unlike typical screen printing.
The design is part of the fabric of the item, so it will last as long as the item does.
The intensity of color is often unmatched.
What is Giclée?
Giclée (pronounced zhee-CLAY or often gee-CLAY) is a printing process that creates a museum quality, archival print. Special acid-free, paper is printed with fade resistant ink using a state-of-the-art, large format inkjet printer.
What is a gallery wrap canvas?
Gallery wrap is a style of displaying a canvas that doesn't show any visible staples or nails holding the fabric to the wooden stretcher bars. This style of canvas is intended to be hung unframed.
What is a gallery mirror wrap canvas?
Mirrored edges (mirror wrap) is used to show the whole image on the main surface, rather than printing the edges of the image on the sides (image wrap) of the canvas frame. It is usually used when there is necessary detail on the edges of the image. Image wrap is used when the focal point of the image is in the center.
