The painting "Midnight Rue" portrays a quaint French village street under the enigmatic glow of a full moon at midnight. The style is expressive, marked by thick, impetuous brushstrokes that create a sense of turbulence and vitality in the nocturnal setting. This technique, with its rich textural quality and dynamic use of color, echoes the passionate energy of post-Impressionist works.
In this vivid nightscape, the full moon reigns supreme, casting an ethereal light that dances over the cobblestones and the façades of the close-knit buildings. The moon's symbolism is multifaceted: it could be seen as a beacon of enlightenment, guiding the way through the darkness, or as a representation of the subconscious, illuminating hidden truths in the silent hours of the night.
The central feature of the painting is the lone figure wandering the street, which introduces themes of solitude and introspection. This solitary silhouette against the historic architecture is a nod to the individual's journey through life's mysteries and also a reflection on the introspective nature of midnight's quiet hours.
The sky, a whirlpool of colors and strokes around the moon, symbolizes the constant motion of time and the swirling thoughts that often accompany the solitude of night walks. There's a palpable tension between the kinetic sky and the static, solid buildings, evoking a sense of the eternal versus the ephemeral.
Overall, "Midnight Rue" is a painting that captures the introspective ambience of a late-night stroll through a village that is steeped in history and mystery, where every stone could tell a story, and the moonlight leads the way to silent reflection.

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.
