About Frank Suplie
Frank Suplie (born in 1950) paints the essence of the landscape under the open sky. Suplie is a holder of the German Worpswede scholarship and master student of Prof. Fußmann. Like all Northern German realists, for him, the motif has priority, and he would never omit anything. He rarely uses grey or brown, certainly not dirty colours. He rather likes to use pastel tones, which selectively increase to a pure red or yellow. Frank Suplie's painting ranges in this bright scale, and he masters it with virtuosity.
His landscape impressions are represented in many public collections.
Graphic or sculpture edition that was initiated by ars mundi and is available only at ars mundi or at distribution partners licensed by ars mundi.
Giclée = derived from the French verb gicler "to squirt, spurt".
The giclée method is a digital printing process. It is a high-resolution, large-format printout on an inkjet printer with special different-coloured dye- or pigment-based inks (usually six to twelve). The colours are fade-proof, i.e. resistant to harmful UV light. They have a high richness of nuance, contrast and saturation.
The giclée process is suitable for art canvases, handmade and watercolour paper as well as for silk.
