Description
This is a photomontage, a combination of various photographs I took in Santa Fe, New Mexico. I love the soft edges, the warm colors, and the overall feeling of mystery I created. I'm thinking this would look particularly good printed on metal.

Hello Carol Leigh! I notice the colors on your Window De Santa Fe on canvas look more darker ( or more saturated with color) than on the wood. Is this true. I would prefer the wood but it looks a tiny bit paler than on canvas. Please advise. Marilyn
Carol Leigh replied:
Good afternoon … You ask a good question. Fine Art America came up with the wood concept to appeal their buyers who like the weathered, worn, perhaps faded look. If one has a cute cottage-like home, kind of shabby chic, then the more rustic look of the wood might be perfect. If a buyer leans more toward a bolder, more saturated look, then the wood treatment would probably not be the right choice. When I made this picture, I definitely wanted something that would pop off the wall. The wood treatment would negate the boldness. I’d be likely to select metal. But metal reflects light, and might diminish the picture, so keep that in mind. Ha! Have I been vague enough for you?! Your idea of canvas is a good one — you will keep the bold colors and will keep reflections to a minimum. Thanks for asking. — Carol Leigh

I love this! I would like to purchase, but I need a larger print - like 4'x5'. Can that be done? If so, cost?
Carol Leigh replied:
Kathryn, thank you for asking. The largest this image can print is 30x40 inches. Alas. Due to the sensor size of the camera I used to make this, the picture would begin what I call "falling apart" at anything larger and you wouldn't be happy with it. I'm pleased you like the picture, and am sorry I can't make it any bigger.

This is stunning, Carol - no way I would have thought it anything but a wonderful painting. Very artistic.
