(PRWEB) May 17, 2005 -- Wonderful work!"

...very moving and striking!"

All of your work is perfect. I enjoy looking at them all!"

These are testimonials that visitors to Pemberton & Oakes Online Gallery are leaving as they browse through a collection of classic paintings on early childhood, made possible through a recent licensing arrangement with Zazzle.com. Visitors often conclude their visit by purchasing art posters of award winning paintings such as The Thinker", Brotherly Love" and Touching the Sky". Over 30 paintings in this body of 112 works, based on paintings by renowned childhood artist Donald Zolan are currently available through Zazzle, and more are planned.

We are pleased that interest in this Special Collection is growing", says John Hugunin, President of Pemberton & Oakes, who adds that many of these paintings have never been available before in art poster format. Over the years weve had numerous requests from collectors and art lovers to offer these works as art posters. Zazzle offered us the ability to bring these folks high-quality art posters in an unprecedented variety of formats suited to their own tastes. Users can literally create their own art products."

Indeed, art posters in the Collection can be ordered on photo quality paper, premium heavy poster stock or matte canvas, with many options in between. Archival inks than can last for generations are used for the higher quality options, and are said to accurately capture the quality of light and skin tone colors intended in the original oil painting. For collectors wishing to frame these works, even more choices are available. Zazzle offers over 140 different molding styles ranging from matte metal to hand-painted wood.

Hugunin is impressed. "We feel weve finally found a winning way to make these inspirational paintings available to the widest possible audience at reasonable prices. Zazzle was unquestionably the best candidate to do this via the web, while still meeting the high standards we demanded from an art print manufacturer." With many award-winning works of early childhood in the Collection, Hugunin believes these prints can add life, light and a dose of daily inspiration to any wall in the home or office.

Zazzle, a manufacturer and online retailer of high-quality art-based apparel, posters and cards, uses the "idea-driven internet" to remove barriers between artists and art consumers, by turning ideas into products."

Pemberton & Oakes has developed inspirational and award-winning art for nearly 30 years, including works based on paintings by renowned childhood artist Donald Zolan and pastel artist Tricia Reilly-Matthews.
