FINE ART GALLERY PRINTS
All images on the site are available as FINE ART Gallery Giclée Prints. All print images are only available in Signed Limited Editions. Editions sizes vary and are unique to the art piece and it’s print size. Different sizes of fine art prints are produced and each “print size” has a limited edition. There are NO prints created that do not have limited editions.
Each limited edition has a up to 10% of the edition size in artist proofs and no more. Artist proofs are not made public for sale on the website. Personal inquires to purchase artist proofs are allowed. Once the limited editions are sold out for the print size, they are gone and no more prints will be made in that size every again.
AUTHENTICITY:
Every print comes complete with a Certificate Of Authenticity and marked with it’s corresponding limited edition print number. Some Certificates of Authenticity do have a short story about the work of art and what it means. This is not guaranteed for every piece of art or print, however if there is a printed story behind the original painting then a copy of that story will be included with the Certificate of Authenticity.
Each print is personally signed by the artist and marked with it’s corresponding edition number as well.
THE PRINTING PROCESS:
COLLECTIBLE EXHIBIT QUALITY IMAGES.
Print prices increase as the edition nears the end since the remaining prints available at that size are dwindling, which increases it’s collectable value. As the value increases so does your investment.
Typically as a general “base” approximate, we raise the price of the prints after every 50 prints have sold until the entire limited edition has sold out.
Once all editions are sold out, the image is retired and can no longer be printed.
We use the finest gallery printing process available.
Fine Art Prints are made with museum quality materials, exquisite attention to details, high-quality archival inks on fine art papers using a high-resolution large format inkjet printer. Also know as the infamous Giclée printing process. The archival paper has an estimated lifespan of at least 200 years without fading or color shifting if displayed in typical indoor lighting conditions.
MOUNTING CONSIDERATIONS AND CARING FOR YOUR PRINTS:
Your print is an investment, and these simple care instructions will ensure your ability to enjoy it for your entire lifetime:
Handle the print on it’s edges and use two hands to prevent kinking of the print. Cloth gloves are recommended for handling.
Photographic dyes, like all dyes, can change with time and exposure to sunlight, ultraviolet radiation, excessive heat, and high humidity. To help prevent changes in photographic dyes, follow these guidelines:
Illuminate prints with tungsten light whenever possible.
Display prints in the lowest light level consistent with your viewing needs.
If a print is exposed to direct or indirect sunlight or fluorescent light, use an ultraviolet-absorbing filter (such as glass) between the light source and the print.
If prints are displayed behind glass, maintain a slight separation between the prints and the glass. The most common way of doing this is by getting your print professionally matted prior to framing. Any frame shop can help you choose the right mat that best displays your print of choice.
Keep the temperature and humidity as low as possible.
Heat mounting can destroy the metallic laminate. I recommend that you use a professional framer and the use of cold contact-type adhesive or cement. For information on lacquering and other post-process treatments.
