Available Formats
1. Single Sheet Prints
These are the smallest prints we produce. They are printed using Epson's Ultrachrome K3 pigment inks on quality fine art paper.
Images are centrally positioned on a single sheet with the unused portion of the paper forming a white border. The artist's signature is included just below the image in pencil.
Additional information, including the name and date as well as Edition and Print Run, is presented below the image in the border area of the print. This information is positioned to give the purchaser a choice, when matting and framing the print, as to the extent of the information visible. It is possible when matting one of these prints, to have a) none of the information visible, b) the signature, name and date visible, or c) all the information visible.
The prints are supplied in a sealed transparent bag with a backing sheet for protection.
Below is a sample print. Click on the image for a larger view, a separate window will open.
2. Matted and Mounted Prints
Images are also available as prints fully matted and mounted.
Images are printed on a fine art paper, either Hahnemuhle Photo Rag 308, HP Hahnemuhle Smooth Fine Art or Ilford Galerie Gold Fibre Silk, using HP Vivera pigment inks, or Epson Ultrachrome K3 pigment inks.
Prints are then T-mounted on archival quality foam core board with a single matt. We use Bainbridge Alphamat Artcare and Archival foam core board. For more information on these products click here (this link leaves this site).
The picture's title and artist's signature appears on the matt just below the image.
The matted and mounted print is supplied sealed, in either a transparent bag, or in shrink-wrap film.
3. Gallery Wrap Canvas Prints
Images are also available as Gallery Wrap Canvas prints.
Images are printed on HP Artist Matt or Magic Torino 17M Canvas, coated with Breathing Color Glamour II (link leaves this site) and then stretched on a quality stretcher (profiled) frame ready to hang. The finish is a semi gloss, giving the image a good dynamic range while not causing problems with reflections.
Gallery wrap canvas prints have a frame depth of 0.75 or 1.25 inches (19 or 30mm) and can be wiped over with a damp cloth to keep them dust and spot free.
4. Unfinished Prints
Prints are also available unfinished.
Images are printed on a fine art paper, either Hahnemuhle Photo Rag 308, HP Hahnemuhle Smooth Fine Art or Ilford Galerie Gold Fibre Silk, using HP Vivera pigment inks, or Epson Ultrachrome K3 pigment inks.
Prints are supplied rolled, and can be easily posted in a tube. These are ideal where transport costs make supplying mounted prints unreasonably expensive.
5. Framed Prints
Prints are also available fully framed.
Frames are available in black aluminium or West Australian Jarrah. Smaller prints are matted and mounted (as described above) and then framed. Larger prints are mounted onto a sealed hardboard, matted, and then framed.
All framed prints are supplied complete and ready to hang with non-reflective glass.
