ADDITIONAL WORKS BY
Cheryl Maeder
Details
The Dreamscapes Series were inspired by my travels to the Mediterranean coastal towns of Spain. I found that photographing in the impressionistic style causes the viewer to see the entire image with its palette of colors, form & light creating a mood, an emotion. I want to convey to the viewer that the world we see in front of us is part of a larger reality and what appears to be clear and in focus is only our perception. “Cheryl Maeder is one of those rare talents that seems to effortlessly combine painting and photography into an engaging visual statement. She balances realism with a soft-focused whisper of faded color, creating her works with a sprinkle of magic that leaves the viewer in a dreamy state. Part color field painter, part impressionist and part abstractionist, Maeder allows us to bring back our own nebulous memories of people and places through her photo postcard-like compositions, which are pushed to the edge of recognizability.” Bruce Helander is an Artist, Editor-in-Chief of the Art Economist and contributor of Art News Magazine.

PAPER QUALITY
All ArtStar limited editions are printed to order on 100% cotton rag Hahnemuhle paper with archival inkjet pigments and are hand cut to size. That's the same quality that museums and galleries use and Hahnemuehle is the best fine art paper on the market. And all our printing and framing is done right here in the USA using environmentally friendly materials.
All prints are printed with a minimum border of 0.5 inches to allow for mating and framing. Quoted print dimensions include this border. Likewise, we never crop, color correct or otherwise alter our artists work and adhere to the highest image quality standards.
OUR FRAMES
ArtStar offers professional custom framing on every print with five stylish options to fit your home: white wood, black wood, natural maple, matless frame and facemounting to Plexiglas. Facemounting is a premium option and carries special pricing depending on the size of the piece. Please contact customerservice@artstar.com to request this option. Framing is the best way to preserve your art and all ArtStar frames have Plexiglas fronts to prevent breakage with the authenticity card mounted on the back. And we use 8-ply acid-free mats with a taped backing to ensure your art lives a long and inspiring life on your walls.
After you choose your frame size and color our professional framers will custom frame, pack and ship your art to you in a bespoke box so that it arrives on your doorstep ready for the wall. (Did we mention we even include the hanger and nail?)
Black, White and Natural Wood Frame Dimensions
11 x 14 - 17 x 20 inches (43 cm x 51 cm)
20 x 24 - 26 x 30 inches (66 cm x 76 cm)
30 x 40 - 40 x 50 inches (102 cm x 127 cm)
Matless Frame
This option is available for our white, black and natural wood frames and omits the white mat between the print and the frame. Instead the frame is flush with the edge of the image and includes a spacer to recess the image stylishly within the frame.
Facemounting to Plexi
The artwork is mounted to a Plexiglas front with a sintra backing giving it a high gloss, gallery-style finish. Facemounting will not increase the dimensions of your print as the facemounting is flush to the border of the image.
