Help: printing ltd edition prints

[fusionframer]

hi all,

I have a customer who is an artist. She is looking to sell printss of her work. She has had a photographer take photos of a painting who is experienced of taking photo's for artists to create prints.

I do not know much about this at all. Does someone have the right printer so i can send the images to print. I am of course happy to pay the going rate. If this sample works well, there will be more printing needed.

I am keen to help the artist because she is a friend, but i will also get the framing work.

If anyone can help, please pm me and i will contact to make arrangemenrs.

Many thanks

Nick

I would suggest find someone local to you who you can take the original to and make sure the prints are a good match to it. Getting the colour management right is critical.

Coulour matching could well be an issue working from a photograph/digital file.

However, If you've seen it on screen and its a good match I'll happily print you a small proof and post it to you free of charge, you just need to send me the file!

PM me for details

assuming it's a colour calibrated monitor of course.

I'll still send a free proof

Sorry Framerpicture, very rude of me, i meant to send you a response.

Many thanks for the offer, CanvasChris is very kindly doing a proof for me.

Thanks again,

Nick

we are looking at 18" by 12".

In fact, I have had several enquiries for printing from artists this week. I do a lot of framing for artists (I guess any framer does!), but some of the local artists seem to be selling well at the moment. What I am finding though is that the paintings selling seem to be your more traditional landscapes. This is good as that is what I sell in our shop!

Cheers

Nick
