We have upgraded out gloss canvas to a new version which has a more refined and consistent glossy finish on the surface. Many of our customers have indicated that they felt the previous version of our glossy canvas just was not glossy enough.

If you have wondered how can you seamlessly tie in your website or business with our own website and printing infrastructure our web api may be for you.

The William Turner by Hahnemuhle is one of the most popular papers used in the Giclee printing industry. Texture wise this fits nicely between our Fine Art Paper (Somerset Velvet) and our Premium giclee. This is a 310g natural white mould made natural line paper with 100% rag content making it highly archival.

Our new most affordable canvas prints are now produced from the high quality Artisan Canvas by Fredrix, the top brand in canvas. Images are printed with archival grade Epson Ultrachrome GSX inks, an eco-solvent type of ink. The finished print has a luster or satin appearance ideally suited for both art reproductions and photographs.

We have updated the finishing options for the back of the canvas prints which are available. No longer are we offering the Tyvek backings. Instead all canvas prints by default will receive a white or black acid free mat board backing.

Right now this has got to be my favorite paper. To top it off, it’s by Hahnemuhle, the leader in museum and gallery grade fine art papers for giclee prints. Hahnemuhle’s Torchon is a 285 gsm acid free fine art paper with a parchment-like feel.

This month of April 2015 we will be introducing at least three exciting new new options for you. We will be making formal introductions of these as they are made available so make sure are following us on Facebook or continue to get our newsletter. Here is a summary:

Please excuse the mess but we have officially relocated into a larger production facility. Within just under a year we had outgrown our previous location. As our order volume increased and new staff was added late last year it was necessary to start to explore moving again.

We are moving again. Technically we are only going to be expanding our production center by moving to a larger area within the same business complex. This will be approximately twice the size of our current location. I won’t say this was unexpected but perhaps just not anticipated to be so soon.

Setting up prints to sell in your galleries is a free service that we offer. Because it is free we do not really provide any one on one support by phone. Only online or by e-mail.
