Professional Printing
All my loose and framed prints are hand printed using the very latest Giclée printing process. Epson UltraChrome K3 Ink on professional Epson media gives prints that are lightfast for up to 75 years in colour and over 100 years in Black and White.
All the prints are signed on the front except the small panoramas. A neat white border surrounds the printed image allowing easy mounting or framing.
Professional Framing
All my prints can be professionally mounted and framed. Attention to details and personal care are used with the best materials to present my images the best possible way.
I offer three frame designs, Oak, Walnut and Black wood laminate, these materials compliment my collection best and fit in with most light or dark décor. If you require a custom frame material/colour, please email with your requirements.
Canvas Prints
My prints can also be professionally printed onto canvas and stretched using Vivera inks with a lifespan of up to 200 years. The canvas is wrapped round the edges of a mortise jointed, wedged and tensioned 36mm deep wooden frame and stapled on the reverse then satin sealed for a durable substantial contemporary look.
