giclée print
master framers
by Siddiqa Juma
The Craft
"I drew thin gold lines from the centre outward, cutting through the dark surface to reveal the structure beneath."
The paint was loaded thick onto the brush and mixed with a thickening gel. Working in loose circles, I turned the brush as I moved to push as much paint onto the canvas as possible, building up heavy, textured rings from the outside in. Once the paint dried, I painted over it in dark colours, black and deep teal, letting the raised texture show through. Then, using the edge of a palette knife, I drew thin gold lines from the centre outward, cutting through the dark surface to reveal the structure beneath.
The Centre
The glowing core — concentric rings of gold built up layer by layer, spiralling outward from a single point.
The Web
Thin gold lines drawn with the edge of a palette knife, cutting through the dark surface to reveal the structure beneath.
The Surface
Heavy paint mixed with thickening gel, worked in loose circles and built up ring by ring before the dark layers were added over the top.
The Story
"The strength is not in the house. It is in the one who keeps building."
I watched a spider building its web. It worked with complete focus, strand by strand, circle by circle. It had no doubt about what it was doing. That image stayed with me. The surah uses the spider's house to describe the fragility of worldly reliance. The spider does not know its house is weak. But it builds anyway. That is what the surah is about. Understanding the fragility and persevering regardless, because the strength is not in the house. It is in the one who keeps building.

Your print is made to last. A few things worth knowing:
Keep it out of direct sunlight where possible. Archival paper holds its colour well, but prolonged UV exposure will fade any print over time.
Avoid hanging in humid rooms such as bathrooms or kitchens. Moisture is the main enemy of fine art paper.
If your print arrives rolled, lay it flat under a few books for 24 hours before framing. It will settle naturally.
For cleaning, a soft dry cloth on the glass is all you need. Never spray directly onto the print.
