Travel Prints France

Travel Art Prints France

My Travel Prints France are inspired by my travels that I  have taken to Magical Places across the globe.  These works are the Inspiration for The Architectural Whimsy Collection which is a colorful, vibrant and playful series that began during my travels in Europe.

Also check out what I have available in my Original Collection 

I was visiting the quaint village of St. Paul de Vence in the south of France after teaching a workshop, and as I was walking down the stone staircase, I looked out over the village and noticed that they were leaning or tilting with age.  I was inspired to paint them as they were and sold the works immediately.  The rest is history.  This collection is now much more about my feelings of magic visiting these charming places in the quiet corners of Italy and France rather than what I actually saw.  They sway and sing, talk and dance in their whimsical contortions.

As she developed this series it came to her attention that everyone has that special attachment to their memories, from their travels,  of these magical places.  I know that I love my favorite pieces hanging in my kitchen and living room.  Every time I pass them, it reminds me of that special moment in a magical space.  This painting reminds me of the gentle quality of eating a beautiful organic lunch above the sea overlooking fields of flowers and veggies.  It is one of my fondest memories of the French countryside.

These inspirational experiences have blossomed into multiple images of beloved US locations as well as Europe and Mexico. Many of the Architectural Whimsy images are available as hand embellished, limited edition Giclee Prints on canvas, as well as some open edition prints and products.  Three different sizes are available.  The original, the limited edition print, and the smaller open edition print.

Find the perfect piece for your living room and be reminded daily of the wonderful time you spent in one of these charming towns.

Kathleen Carrillo is now offering some of her most important images as hand embellished, limited edition, signed and numbered Giclee prints on canvas. Each painting that is chosen for a limited edition print is scanned and then digitally produced, archived and available to utilize for your order. The high-quality canvas provides a consistent surface that allows for an incredibly intense range of colors and depth. Once Kathleen receives your ordered print from her manufacturer, she personally hand paints the print with her fine art acrylics, enhances it with gel medium for texture and then finishes it with a final coat of acrylic finish varnish. It is then signed and numbered and comes with a Certificate of Authenticity.

Kathleen is also offering a selection of her works to be made available as open-edition canvas prints using the finest epson inks available. All of her fine art prints are designed to last a lifetime without fading, as long as they are not hung in direct sunlight. Each open-edition print is varnished for intensity of color and protection of surface. Open Edition prints are produced smaller than the Limited edition prints and the limited edition prints are smaller than the originals by about 20-30%.
