ABOUT PETER THADDEUS
As an acrylic painter, I use my soft bristle brushes to tell a story of love and pride in vivid, contrasting colors and strong whimsical line work. I portray a love for life and the magnificent creations this world has to offer, and love of the diverse array of people that occupy our spaces and the relationships they enter into. In my work I celebrate pride in the communities we come from and live in, and pride in ourselves, embracing who we are in bold fashion.
In the 25 years that I have been exhibiting and selling artwork, it has been a privilege for me to paint for many homes and businesses in the form of canvas paintings and murals. Many of these pieces have been custom as I always strive to find ways to meet the specific needs of my clients. In addition to my original acrylic paintings, I offer prints on paper or stretched canvas using the giclee printing process. Giclee prints are available for over 200 of my paintings in various sizes.
Fascinated with the infinite possibilities of color, I am always integrating new color schemes into my work. I am specifically inspired by the colors of the flags of the LGBTQ+ community. I do not limit myself to one subject matter in my work- the celebration of life and community that my work embraces is the overarching subject matter. While I am inspired by so much I see in the world around me, inspiration to me is not a calling to recreate that which I already find beautiful; instead it is an influence on my vision- calling me to create something new.

ABOUT THE GICLÉE PROCESS
Giclée printing is currently the highest quality standard for printing single or limited edition prints. The term "giclée" (pronounced "ZHEE-CLAY") is a French word meaning "to spray." Giclée prints are created by spraying millions of droplets of ink onto archival fine-art substrates. The word "giclée," as a fine-art term, has come to be associated with prints using fade-resistant archival pigmented inks printed on archival substrates by professional inkjet printers. Giclée prints represent the highest evolution in printmaking technology. The giclée printing process provides better color accuracy and richer depth of color than other means of art reproduction possible.
All giclée prints are signed and numbered by the artist.
