About the Work
Jesse Littlefield, whose practice fuses the immediacy of screenprinting with the gesture of abstraction, relocated from Boston to the Hudson Valley in 2015. The migration afforded his work an aerated approach to the graphic immediacy of his former paintings, with color taking a stronger hold in the form of earthy greens, saturated primaries, and soft pastels. The almost sarcastic levity of color palette is contrasted with the sharply edited forms featured in his seven unprecedentedly small-scale works. Jerk Sport, one of the included works, is a tightened microcosm of his larger compositions.

FRAME
All of our frames are made from sustainably sourced engineered hardwood that is manufactured in the USA. Frames are available in Black or White Matte and Walnut.
MAT
Prints are hinged to a conservation quality, acid-free and lignin-free Cellulose matboard, using acid-free polyethylene cloth tape. Each mat’s surface paper is fade and bleed resistant and is attached to a conversation quality foam-core board. Some of our work (typically those pieces with a deckled edge) is floated on the matboard with spacers to separate the artwork from the glazing.
GLAZING
We use museum quality .060 mm plexiglass to frame your work. It blocks 82-85% of UV rays to prevent color fading from exposure to light, protecting your art for years to come.
