For the very best results, we would like to work with your
original art. We can work from high resolution analog photos (8" x
10" or larger), transparencies,
slides or computer files (at least 300 dpi at output size - Photoshop PSD, TIFF,
JPEG, BMP or
GIF files). Photos should be on high gloss photo paper. Slides and transparencies are problematic
but we are willing
to work with them if the original is not available. If you send
a slide or transparency (See
this link),
please send along a photo for color correction purposes, if one is available
and please see the attached hot links.
PLEASE DO NOT SEND FRAMED PIECES - UN-FRAME THEM IF NECESSARY.

This is the actual paper size. We suggest paper margins of at least
1.5" to 3" depending on the size of your print. Therefore
your image size will be approximately 3" to 6" inches less than the paper
size.
When printing on paper, we strongly recommend that your margins be at least
2" to 3" for pieces 13" x 22" or larger. For example, if you are
printing on Paper and your image size is 12" x 16", then you would print on
a 17" x 22" sheet. This will give you 2.5" of margin on 2 sides and 3"
of margin on the other 2 sides. Dealers and collectors don't want pieces with
skimpy margins. When printing on canvas, specify the standard frame/image size and we
will leave an additional 2" all around your image for stretching. For
example if you image is 14 x 18 we will print your 14 x 18 image on a piece
of canvas which is 18 x 22.

Edition Size |
This is the ultimate number of prints you may wish to print.
We recommend that you consider small editions (less than 150
with up to 20 artists proofs if you wish). This does not necessarily
represents the number of prints you wish to print at this time.
