Enchanted Rock – Marilyn Fenn

Sold my last remaining matted print of this painting of Enchanted Rock, from my early representational days of painting. I still have 2 unmatted small prints left, and I imagine those will sell eventually, too.

This has been my most popular image for selling prints. And I still have the original. 🙂

I am considering whether I will resume printing giclee prints of any of my work, as my office space is likely to be completed within the month, and I’ll have access to my good printer again.

If I choose to make any more of my images available as prints, I prefer printing them in small editions only on good fine art paper and signing and numbering them, rather than offering unlimited, unsigned prints that can be printed on any old kind of surface through any online printing shops. I really can’t imagine any of my work on metal or plastic, for example, and FAA (for example) doesn’t give the artist the right to veto any media.

The last 2 available prints of “Enchanted Rock” (unmatted) are here: http://shop.marilynfenn.com/enchanted-rock-print/

This framed print of Enchanted Rock just sold to a couple who recently got engaged there. Enchanted Rock is a magical place, the largest pink granite monadnock in the United States, and has a history of human visitation going back at least 11,000 years.

There are numerous myths about the rock, such as it was “revered by native tribes as a holy portal to other worlds”, that “anyone spending the night on the rock becomes invisible”, and that there exist “many spirits in the tunnels” under the rock. (source: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enchanted_Rock)

My favorite myth, though, is that in the 70’s, hippies used to hang out there doing psychedelics (so I am told), and grooved on the eerie noises of the sun-warmed rock cooling at night. 🙂

I’ve visited several times, but as yet, I haven’t wandered through the caves under the rock. Putting it on my local bucket list.
