Silkscreen prints of Claude A. Simard\u2019s artworks and book, Inspiration, are available through \u00c9ditions Multiplart. In-person appointments are available for customers in the Quebec City area. See the Contact section for details.<\/p>\n

Founded in 1990 by Huguette Moreau, \u00c9ditions Multiplart has produced more than 50 silkscreen prints and digital prints of Claude A. Simard\u2019s work.<\/p>\n

What are silkscreen prints?<\/strong>
\nSilkscreen prints are also known as serigraphs. They are made by hand using a traditional technique that allows artists to produce multiple impressions of an artwork. The images are pulled onto special paper with a specific texture and weight.<\/p>\n

Original silkscreen prints are always produced in limited editions. The artist decides how many copies will be made and each print is numbered as follows: impression number over edition size. For example, 3\/100 indicates that the print is the third impression in a regular edition of 100. Each copy is numbered, dated and signed by the artist. While additional impressions are often made for each regular edition, you will always have a confirmation of the actual numbers because each artwork comes with a certificate of authenticity.<\/p>\n

Silkscreen prints should be framed and protected by glass.<\/p>\n

The colours appearing on your computer screen may be slightly different from the true colours of the prints. We recommend viewing artworks on different computers to get a better sense of the colours.<\/p>\n<\/div>

The book \u00ab Inspiration \u00bb<\/h2>\n

This book tells a story. The way children tell stories when they paint and draw.<\/p>\n

Long before we can write, we make up images that tell our stories, half truth, half invention.<\/p>\n

As children do, we tell about people we love, places where we live and we travel to. Moments of joy and moments of sorrow. We tell about hope and expectations.
\nLife! So fragile. So short.<\/p>\n

This book looks at what we call inspiration, that complex mix of what happens outside of us, that feeds our imagination, revives the fire, sparks new ideas.<\/p>\n
