Bring your artwork to life with the stylish lines and added depth of a metal print. Your image gets printed directly onto a sheet of 1/16" thick aluminum.
The aluminum sheet is offset from the wall by a 3/4" thick wooden frame which is attached to the back. The wooden frame includes a hanging wire for easy mounting on your wall (see photo on the left).
All metal prints ship within 3 - 4 business days and arrive "ready to hang" with mounting hooks and nails.
Metal prints are extremely durable. They're lightweight. They won't bend, and they're water resistant.
The high gloss of the aluminum sheet complements the rich colors of any image to produce stunning results.

One of the few items of the 1989 UM BBall Championship that I've seen. Very nice

This is one of three pieces that I am adding to my collection. Once I have received the other two pieces I will be happy to provide a photograph of the display. The quality of the art piece is exceptional. I wouldn't hesitate to purchase even more pieces!

We were disappointed that the name of the artist is cut off and not showing in full. We feel the name of the artist is an important part of it and would love to have it rectified

We live in the desert so the Palm theme resonates. The color scheme is brilliant and perfect. We would like to see more from this artist. Where do we look?
Artist's Description
The main reason for stringing and hanging dried chili peppers (chile) in this way is to preserve them for later use in cooking. However, in the Southwest, ristras are popular decorator accents as well as being practical storage solutions. Here a string hangs from the overhead wood framing of a patio pergola in Albuquerque, New Mexico. The strong shadows cast by the midday sun create complex and interesting patterns on the stucco wall, and the bright red of the ristra contrasts nicely with the black and white background.
The image is also available in color in my The Southwest - New Mexico gallery.
Tied for 3rd place in the June 2014 Colorkey Selective Color contest
