ESN- Embellished, Signed & Numbered Editions
Embellished Signed and Numbered limited editions are designated by the letters ESN during the numbering process. The Closest You Can Get to an Original Every ESN edition is a collaboration between precision archival printing and the spontaneous hand of the artist. Shop All ESN Editions
1. Truly Unique (1 of 1) While the image belongs to a limited edition, the physical surface is unique to your piece. Mark Lawrence hand-applies a heavy, clear gel medium, re-painting the composition to add significant texture and depth.
2. Museum-Grade Longevity We use the same materials found in world-class museums: pH-neutral archival canvas, pigment-based inks, and a UV-protective acrylic coating. Your art is built to resist fading and abrasion for generations.
3. Authenticated & Documented Your artwork arrives with a matching Certificate of Authenticity. The edition number is strictly tracked and permanently retired upon sell-out, protecting the rarity of your investment.
An ESN edition bridges the gap between a limited edition print and an original oil painting. Because Mark Lawrence personally re-works the canvas surface, no two pieces are ever identical. When you acquire an ESN, you are not just buying a print; you are investing in a one-of-a-kind mixed-media creation that carries the artist’s actual brushwork, energy, and physical signature.
ESN editions are ultra-hand embellished by Mark Lawrence. Mark’s time intensive embellishing process adds brush strokes of texture and depth to the entire artwork. For this reason every ESN limited edition piece is a unique work of art!
See the Difference: See the texture in the video below to understand the 3D effect that photos cannot fully capture.
During the ultra-embellishing process Mark completely hand brushes the entire artwork using a clear and thick archival artist’s gel medium. As he repaints the canvas he follows the contour of the composition and builds rich textures reminiscent of an original oil painting.
All ESN limited edition pieces are signed with metallic ink by Mark on the front right corner of the canvas. Mark’s signature is approximately two inches from the bottom and side edges of the canvas to accommodate traditional gallery wrapped framing.
ESN Limited Edition Features:
ESN pieces are completely ultra-hand embellished by Mark with an archival quality high gloss clear gel medium. Mark devotes hours to sculpting the surface of each canvas, following the flow of the composition to enhance the movement and emotion of the piece.
The thick, archival gel medium captures the light, creating dynamic shadows and highlights that change throughout the day. This added dimension brings the VerseVision to life, giving it the heavy, organic texture of a gallery original.
The end result is a unique piece of richly textured mixed media artwork that becomes the focal point of any room where displayed.
HAND SIGNED AND CERTIFIED
ESN Limited Edition pieces are certified for color fidelity, media defects, embellishing textures and consistency. Once an edition sells out, it is gone forever. Mark hand signs with a metallic pen on front right corner of artwork image and ESN edition numbers each piece on the back side only after the quality has been assured. The edition number is then matched with an identically numbered Certificate of Authenticity that Mark also signs. The edition number is documented and permanently stricken from world-wide availability.
