For the past 3 or 4 weeks I have spent an inordinate amount of time searching for suppliers of various components and materials that I need to mount, mat, and frame large prints. After hitting seemingly endless dead ends with some of Calgary’s local art suppliers I decided that I would need to take my shopping list online if I wanted to find the things I was looking for. In the end I was able to locate everything I needed and after placing a half dozen product orders to suppliers in both Canada and the United States boxes slowly began arriving on my doorstep this week. Acid free foam core backs and conservation single mats, frame sealing tape, buffered hinging tape, frame backing paper, and a handful of other essential components and tools. Everything individually selected to be of the finest quality and provide the safest long-term solution to displaying my custom artwork for my clients.
Now Printing
The printer that you see in the image above is an Epson Stylus Pro 3800. It’s the latest addition to my image making arsenal and it allows me to produce all of my prints in-house from 4″ x 6″ proofs all the way up to awe-inspiring 17″ x 22″ prints that are ready for mounting and hanging the wall. I’d been wavering over what to do for the last couple of months when it came to making a decision on which printer I would purchase. However, after seeing the results that this printer is capable of producing I’m confident that I made the right decision. The print quality is absolutely stunning.
Photo of the Month – June
Spring may have arrived a bit late in Calgary this year but by the look of the apple blossoms on this tree there is no question that spring has in fact finally arrived. Spring is a time for growth and like the apple that will eventually grow to replace the blossom you see in this photo I look forward to the continued healthy growth of our little baby girl who is due to arrive in September. At the same time I want to happily congratulate our good friends Jeff and Jana on the recent arrival of their own healthy little baby girl.
