Unframed/Non-encadrée

In 2021 I sought after creating a series of work based on toys that I had an intimate connection with. I chose toys that carried memories from a carefree childhood filled with wonder and hours of carefree play. This print is the third of a limited set of 3 prints made after the original oil painting entitled "Hello", 40" x 40". The first two prints have been sold and this is the last remaining one in circulation and no more will be produced. It is a high quality giclee on stretched canvas made in Quebec. The original painting depicts a worn down vintage fisher price telephone I played with for years as a child. I chose to include all of the wear and tear, as it shows how loved and well used the toy was. It was painted in oils from a photo that I took in my studio of how the toy phone looks today.
