This glossy 6" x 9" aluminum print began as an A.I. (artificial intelligence) prompt* but that was just the first step. It was then edited and formatted as I would one of my digital photos, and the end result is more painterly, detailed, colorful and dynamic.
I was a sculptor for many years before turning to photography as a vocation. I am still drawn to sculptural representations of the world around us, and the use of mixed media to add texture and contrast. And what better subject than our national bird?
This metal print includes a custom print stand that is handcrafted from repurposed scrap solid-surface material, a suede-microfiber cleaning cloth and a signed certificate of authenticity.
Our products are proudly made in the USA, and wherever possible, even our accessories and packaging are sourced domestically.
* All images that begin with artificial intelligence prompts are signed "Metal Vistas", while images which begin as digital photographs are signed 'Robert Belgrad', so our customers will know the difference at a glance.
* The coffee mug is shown for size reference only. It is not included.
