Delivery
of your Ordered Prints
All
images are custom printed when you order them. Decorator prints
are much quicker to print as they are handled in a lab local to
our gallery. Fine Art Prints are printed by a large custom lab
in either Calgary Alberta or Vancouver B.C.. A Fine Art
Print when ordered will be queued for printing on the days that
the selected lab runs Super Gloss prints. The print must then
be shipped to us, where its signature and series number are applied
and its certificate of authenticity is added to the package.
We then ship the print to you. It may take 2-3 weeks for
the print to reach you, but the wait will be worth it. If there
are any delays, we will make sure to communicate them to you immediately.
You will receive an email to confirm your order, and another to
let you know when we ship. Any other questions you have
will be answered either by email or a phone-call, whichever you
prefer.
We
ship our prints using Canada Post Express Mail. Your print will
be rolled with a tissue interleave and then placed into a plastic
bag for protection. We then place the print into a section of
4” diameter PVC pipe for shipping. We have discovered that shipping
in this thick walled pipe rather than a cardboard tube will
get your print to you safely despite anything the post office
can do to it (unless of course they run it over with a truck).
We have never had a damaged print yet!!! Smaller decorator prints
are shipped flat between several pieces of rigid cardboard.
The
Printing Process
Most
of our images are available as Fine Art Limited Editions
and Decorator Prints.
Decorator
Prints
Our Decorator Prints are open edition photographs printed with Ultrachrome
K3 archival pigment inks on a large format Epson printer. The images
produced from this system will withstand fading for up to 200 years
when protected under UV protective glass. The Decorator prints are available
matted or unmated. We also offer printing on canvas for Decorator prints.
Standard sizes are 8x10 and 12x18.
Limited
Edition Prints
Our Limited Edition Prints are available in sizes 16x24, 20x30 and 24x36.
The editions are limited to 150 prints in each available size with no
more than 10 Artists Proofs. Each print is signed and numbered and comes
with a certificate of authenticity. Limited Editions are printed on
Fuji Crystal Archive SuperGloss (Fuji Flex).
The Flexprint material
has a polyester based substrate which provides incredible color depth.
The colors are so vibrant that they appear to pop off the pages like
a 3 dimensional picture when viewed under correct lighting. You will
not believe the beauty of a Flexprint until you see one. The Flexprint
material represents the finest print material in the world. The print
will resist fading for nearly a century when displayed under UV protective
glass.
