The artist creates visually provocative paintings and prints which includetangible cultural and sometimes metaphysical imagery. Her work may be based on a specific theme, or may include symbols borrowed from ancient cultures, what the viewer SEES is a highly personal interpretation.

The essence of the original work is captured in durable pigments on high quality Somerset Velvet, a luxurious archival paper with a deckled edge.

Carla Crow has earned statewide and regional recognition for her unique personal vision expressed mostly through acrylic on bark paper. A wide array of her images are also captured on Giclee prints using archival papers. Her continuing experiments in this media are prompted by her research into Hawaiian and Polynesian art and traditions.



The Hotel Hana-Maui Collection

During the recent renovation of the Hotel Hana-Maui, Hana artist Carla Crow was commissioned to create artwork specifically suited to the newly decorated guest suites. The owners of the hotel purchased the original paintings and then had a small edition of Artist Proofs published to be displayed in the rooms. These AP's are not for sale.

Recently, the numbered portion of the edition, handsigned by the artist, has now been published. Shown below are those prints and their prices, both unframed and custom framed.

Collector's Valuation Portfolio
For purchasers of one or more of Carla Crow's prints.

A Certified Certificate of Authenticity, Insurance Valuation, Bill of Sale and Biography of the artist accompanies every Limited Edition print by Carla Crow.

We also provide a "Curatorial Declaration". This report discusses the particular medium used in creating the artwork, number of prints in the edition, and other unique properties present in the Carla Crow print(s) that you have acquired.

This kind of information is usually required both for insurance purposes and for reappraisals dictated by increased market values. You will find that this is an approach to Wealth Management Documentation that has been typically available to only select, high-net-worth individual collectors. We, however, feel that ALL of our clients deserve to be treated with this level of service, thus our Collector's Portfolio. (Your CPA will love this investment-grade data.)

If you wish, we can also submit your print(s) for certification in the National Fine Art Title Registry to document your acquisition. Most insurance companies will not pay the current value of your artwork, but an amount closer to the cost of raw materials unless you could prove the higher value. Yet the disaster that took your art could easily claim your receipts or other documentation as well. When you register your fine art with National Fine Arts Title Registry, your asset records, which document value and ownership, remain safe and available by your own unique password from any computer to permanently capture details for provenance, estate planning and asset statements.

A one-time transfer fee of $15.00 is charged for this certification service.
