Description

This Long Time Sun Print is a high quality giclée reproduction using archival materials. The full verse is a Kundalini Farewell Blessing, “May the long time sun shine upon you all love surround you and the pure light within you guide your way on”. I chose a piece of one of my paintings for the background because I think the beautiful yellow hibiscus flower lends itself to the words.

Size 13” x 14”

Interesting Fact
This Kundalini closing mantra is a Scottish blessing. The Incredible String Band was a Scottish folk band in the 1960’s that toured the US and they finished their sets with the song May the Long Time Sun. Around this time Yogi Bhajan was introducing the west to Kundalini yoga when he heard some of his students playing the song and he requested they play it after his classes. This started the tradition of ending the Kundalini practice with May the Long Time Sun.

The Process

• First a high resolution scan is made of the artwork.
• Photoshop is used to enhance the edges of the artwork.
• I use an Epson archival printer with pigmented inks to make a canvas print.
• This print is coated with 2 applications of varnished to insure the long life of the print.
• The canvas is stretched over 5/8 inch stretcher bars using a gallery wrap.
• Lastly a wire is installed insuring your canvas print arrives ready to hang.
