PRINTS

The expressive fine art print represents the absolute nucleus of my art and craft. While my photographs may look great on your computer display, it is only my fine art prints that are capable of exuding the , depth, texture, and delicate nuances of my photographs.
Please note the colour of an image viewed on your computer screen may not be exactly the same on a print.Rest assured that prints are totally colour matched to those originally intended by the artist.



All fine art prints and are signed,titled,dated and are consecutively numbered but not limited.

I do not limited my prints. Limited prints, in my opinion, are a gallery trick to have you pay more for an image, so that non-artists can make more money under the illusion that a 1/25 edition print is more valuable or a better investment than an unlimited print. This is eyewash. Buy my work because you love it. If you want to make an investment, buy real estate or buy gold.

Each print is supplied with a Certificate of Authenticity.

What is a Certificate of Authenticity?
A certificate of authenticity is kind of like a pedigree for your fine art print.
In my certificate of authenticity you’ll find a thumbnail image of the print; a description of where, when and how the photograph was taken; information on what materials and processes were used to print it; and other details. All this information authenticates the uniqueness of your print.
Here's an example of my Certificate of Authenticity.


FINE ART PRINTS
My photographic art prints are of the best quality available. They are truly archival and printed on Fuji Crystal Archive paper to achieve maximum colour depth, tonal purity and stability.Because it is real photo paper, prints have the tactile look and feel of a traditional photograph.
THE INCOMPARABLE PROFESSONAL ARCHIVAL PRINTS; silver based C- Types.
C-Type print is traditional wet process photo paper surface that has beautiful color and rich, deep blacks.This paper is engineered to give excellent resolution and color saturation.
This photographic technology has taken over from the traditional photographic process and uses three lasers merged into a single beam to expose images on to photosensitive materials. The photosensitive material is then internally "wet" processed in the same manner as traditional photography.

C-Type photographic prints are quite simply photographic technology taken to a state of perfection and they are much better in terms of sharpness, clarity, colour saturation and quality than any other photographic or inkjet print process.
My photographic prints gives true continuous tone, ultra sharp photographic images with crisp and precise edge to edge printing and absolutely no distortion.

I print onto a number of surfaces:
Fuji Crystal Archive C-Type Matt - it’s surface makes it suitable for archival mounting and framing . It is used for all genres of photography and is suitable for all framing and mounting processes.
Fuji Crystal Archive C-Type Lustre - Has a slight orange peal lustre surface which makes it an ideal choice when prints may be handled .
Fuji Crystal Archive C-Type Gloss - The gloss surface appears to create a print with sharp rich colours and deeper blacks.



I signed my fine art prints on a 1-inch white border surrounding the print using archival ink.


GLICLEE FINE ART PRINTS
Giclee (pronounced "zhee-clay") is an exceptionally high quality ink-jet printing process that produces beautiful photographs that last much longer than those produced using traditional 'commercial' printing techniques.
This sophisticated reproduction technology not only utilises more colours than regular printing, but also has an excellent vibrancy and detail. This is why Giclee printing is widely regarded as the very best fine art printing method currently available - and why it has been embraced by so many galleries, artists and museums as their preferred method of art reproduction since its 'invention' in the late 1980s.

The word "Giclee" comes from the French verb "to spray" - and refers to the ink being sprayed onto the paper/canvas at high speed. The very latest inks are said to offer up to 70 years light-fastness and UV-resistance.
My Giclée Prints are printed with Epson Stylus Pro 9800 printer onto Hahnemuhle Photo Rag 308 gsm fine art paper.

Hahnemuhle Photo Rag 308 gsm is one of the most popular media worldwide for artwork & photography.Considered by many as the industry standard in fine art paper.
For this reason, it is the printing technique that I use for my biggest fine prints.







CANVAS FINE ART PRINTS

This is one of the best thing which you can purchase and give as a gift to your friend or loved ones.
Printing photographic images on to canvas is a great way to display your images. It quite often has the added effect of engaging the observer and making them question whether it is really a photograph or a painting they are viewing.
I print onto Artist Canvas 400gsm.This canvas has been selected for its texture and exceptionally white base which enhances the appearance of both photographic and graphic images.My canvas are printed with Epson Stylus Pro 9800 printer.



MOUNTED FINE ART PRINTS

Mounted prints are affordable, ready-to-hang art.
The work you find on Beauty in Landscape really comes to life when it’s sitting proud on your wall,mounted on 3mm Foamex for a quality finish.

What is foamex board?

Also referred to as Forex Classic,Foam PVC and Foamalux Xtra.
This is a rigid plastic sheet with a fine cell structure and smooth matt surface ideal for direct to board flatbed printing.
Foamex can easily be drilled,nailed, be fixed with suction cups, glued, double sided tape, hung or velcro backed, and can be framed or frameless.

Pictures mounted on foamex boards are similar to posters although much more rigid and flexible. The board also gives the picture added depth.
