Premium Quality Giclee Prints
Over time, we’ve perfected our process for offering Fine Art Prints. We produce all of our print files in-house and outsource the giclee printing to a trusted, high quality source.
Giclee printmaking emerged as the best technique for museum quality fine art reproductions and has maintained its popularity as inkjet printers have become more advanced. Giclee prints hold many advantages over standard printing by providing a crisp, vibrant and beautiful reproduction of an original artwork.
Giclee printmaking uses the highest quality inkjet printers with pigmented inks, instead of dyes, to create bright colors that are truer to the original artwork. The combination of pigmented archival inks and museum quality archival paper ensures that the prints will last for a lifetime without fading.
Paper vs. Canvas
Our premium archival paper prints have an additional one inch border. The purpose of this is for ease of matting/framing and also to protect the edges of the print.
Premium archival canvas prints are stretched over 1.5 inch bars with white edges. Canvas prints are backed and ready to hang as is, but can also be framed.
Print Size Comparisons
Unsure of what size will work for your space? Scroll through the pictures below to get an idea of how each size looks on a wall (print shown is Spring Out of the Gate). Be sure to account for the added border of a mat and/or frame when measuring your space!
Nearly all of my fine art prints are offered in standard frame sizes — so you can easily find ready-made frames without needing a custom order. In most cases, the next size up from the size of your print, matted, is the best choice.
The only exceptions are paintings created in a 1:2 ratio (for example, very wide panoramic works), which may require custom framing due to their unique dimensions.
Each print listing includes the original painting’s size. If you choose your print in a size that doesn’t match the same ratio as the original painting, a small portion of the image will be cropped to best fit the standard size — ensuring the composition still looks balanced and true to the original.
Here’s a quick guide to help you identify which sizes share the same proportions:
1:1 square: 8x8, 10x10, 12x12, 16x16, etc.
2:3 ratio: 8x12, 12x18, 16x24, 20x30, 24x36
3:4 ratio: 9x12, 12x16, 18x24
4:5 ratio: 8x10, 11x14, 16x20, 20x25, 24x30, 30x40
1:2 ratio (panoramic) 10x20, 12x24, 16x32, 20x40, 24x48
Five Tips for Framing
1. Size Matters
When picking a frame, go for the next standard size up from your paper print size. For example, a 16x20 inch frame is perfect for a 12x16 or 11x14 inch print with a mat. Most of my prints are standard sizes, but a few will require a custom frame.
Pro tip: Choose at least a two-inch mat to give your art some breathing room!
2. Matting Magic
Add a mat for sophistication and space. All my paper prints come with an extra one-inch white border, protecting the print edges and making matting a breeze.
While I usually go for natural white, feel free to experiment with colors to boost the overall aesthetic. Just be sure it is acid-free!
3. Frame In Style
Select a frame that complements your art print and fits your space's aesthetic. Personally, I love the simplicity of a solid wood frame; it not only matches my artwork's modern yet traditional vibe, but also accents my home decor.
4. UV Protection Power
Preserve the art! Choose UV-resistant glass or acrylic to shield your art from the elements. It's like giving your print its own little fortress. When available, I choose the upgraded glass selection often labeled as "musem" or "anti-glare" to combat distracting reflections from nearby windows and lights.
5. Should you frame a canvas print?
While they won’t need a mat or glass, framing a stretched canvas print gives it a finished and professional look. Look for a 1.5 inch rabbet/depth “canvas frame” or “floater frame”. I don’t always frame my canvas prints, but when I do, it makes the space feel complete!
