Gathering Courage for the Jump at Second Iron 

The Second iron bridge along the Saco River in Bartlett, NH is a popular swimming place. Everyone loves to jump from the bridge into the rushing waters below, but for some, contemplation and a gathering of courage is necessary. Limited edition of 25 signed originals. This image is available as a signed original or an affordable unsigned open-edition print. Signed originals are considered valued works of art because of the artist’s signature and the edition number indicating the rarity. For that reason they are created in limited numbers or a single original. They are printed on museum-quality rag fine art paper or canvas or metal. Open-edition prints bear no signature or may have a digital stamp. They are a very affordable alternative for people who simply love the work and can be purchased on various grades of paper and sizes to reflect your cost constraints. Their value is purely personal for people who love art and want to display an image.

Wayne’s images are a celebration of life, blending the real and the surreal to achieve a sense of place or time that reaches beyond the moment into what he calls a "dreamlike quintessentialism" designed to spark an emotional response. Using digital enhancement, handcrafting, painting, and sometimes even straight photography, King seeks to take the viewer to a place that is beyond simple truth to where truth meets passion, hope and dreams.

With the recent explosion of images generated by artificial intelligence as well as the phenomenon of intellectual property theft, a purchaser has two general choices to make: Purchasing an unsigned, open-edition print, or purchasing a signed original work of art. Purchase of an affordable, unsigned, open-edition print should be done simply because you love the image - or it fits the theme, size, color of others you wish to display it with. Pricing on such images is generally very affordable simply because the value is in the pure joy associated with owning and displaying it.

A signed, perhaps numbered, print - especially with a separate signed certificate of authenticity - takes the image out of the realm of “reproduction print” to the singular collectible artwork realm. Signed images are actually the ONLY way to avoid the multiple conundrums that Artificial Intelligence has brought to the marketplace with art. The artist’s signature signifies its uniqueness and the inherent - present or future value of it as a work of art that has the potential of gaining value as an investment over time. Of course, there are still risks associated with purchasing a piece of art online even one that is ostensibly signed. Direct contact with the artist is usually the best way to resolve other questions and, for that reason, you have every right to expect the artist to provide you with a means for contacting him/her/them directly. We encourage you to email us with any questions you have by contacting Wayne at [email protected] .
