  • New Canvas & Print Supplier
    Sunday, January 20, 2008 | [Permanent Link]


    Over the last few months Ive been trying to source new suppliers to try and keep the costs down for canvas and Giclee printing. At long last Im happy to announce partnership with a new supplier. Their mediums which include museum grade canvas and Giclee fine art prints (matte, glossy and lustre) are not only excellent but cost effective to you the buyer.

    Here's the blurb about the canvas:

    Canvas prints are created with a commercial grade professional printer, which features a Micro Piezo DX3™ print head and uses 7-color, pigment-based UltraChrome™ Ink. In order to produce the highest quality product possible, images are printed on Premier Art™ Water Resistant canvas that has been created especially for enlarged portrait and fine art printing. This surface features a true canvas texture with a fine finish. Canvas prints have a Giclee Satin Matte coating. The UltraChrome™ ink is archival and it is oil based. It is also resin coated for longevity. The coating is water based. It has a UV protectant and sealant to help make it water-resistant. The inks and the coating have UV protection. Canvas Prints are stretched mounted on a sturdy wood frame.

    Acrylic is still a popular medium which looks fantastic and I'll be listing it as a medium again shortly, although pricing for this discerning medium is still quite costly.

    For more detailed information about the new mediums and pricing you can visit www.paulcooklin.com/prices.htm
