HOW IT WORKS…

STAGE 1 - QUOTING

  • We’ll have an initial discussion with you to gather some details

  • We’ll provide a quote for you

  • We’ll either travel to you to copy your artwork or feel free to bring it to us

STAGE 2 - scanning

  • We’ll copy each piece using specialist equipment, lighting & cameras

  • Paintings can be photographed in situ or a convenient space can be prepared if possible on-site

  • Our in-house framing department can un-frame & re-frame pictures if necessary

  • We can clean glass and scan through it using non-reflective techniques if required

  • Your artwork is carefully handled by our professional team

STAGE 3 - techniques

  • Our experienced photographers can capture paint relief using specific lighting techniques, based on your preference

  • Unwanted reflection is avoided and necessary reflection (on gold or metallic features etc) is enhanced using our skilled methods

Stage 4 - restoration

  • Our experienced technicians can clean unwanted marks, colour-correct any fading, restore any damage and enhance the overall piece

  • We can digitally manipulate artwork by removing certain details and creating extra features or space if needed

Stage 5 - colour matching

  • A basic colour match is included and can be achieved on-site

  • A full colour matching service is available where we tweak specific colours digitally to ensure they print similarly to your original artwork

  • We run proofing prints and compare them against your original artwork until the colours and tones match as closely as possible

  • You’re welcome to pop in and see a print proof before a full print is processed

Stage 6 - printing

  • Our printing department uses state of the art equipment with archival inks

  • Large-scale prints are available

  • A variety of printing materials are available including canvas, textured fine art & lustre

  • Specialist materials are available upon request

  • For canvas prints, our processing team will prepare the digital files for printing and stretching the canvas - extra image space is created for wrapping around stretcher bars

Stage 7 - finsihing

  • A variety of varnishing options are available, ranging from spray to impasto

  • Multiple layers of varnish are applied by hand to create a textured and authentic appearance

  • Various varnishing techniques are available, such as rolled, brushed or impasto paint imitation

  • Our framing department will make bespoke stretcher bars for your prints and physically stretch each one

  • Bespoke frames are created in-house and your prints framed to finish!
