FINE ART PRINTS

About the Prints

All custom printing is carefully executed by the artist on digital files scanned from 4x5 film originals using state-of-the-art controls just as in traditional color darkrooms, to correct by color balance, contrast, burning and dodging without composites, alteration or manipulation of the original images – the integrity of which is maintained true to the light and color captured during exposure. I have always maintained a strong philosophical commitment to this approach.

Archival pigment ink prints represent the most permanent photographic color media available today, providing a rigorously projected 300-year life expectancy without fading.  The combination of resolution, color quality/accuracy and archival stability ensures the very highest level of quality for serious collectors.  All prints are guaranteed for life against fading or discoloration, and would be otherwise replaced by the artist upon request.  All images are produced in limited editions of 5 to 35 depending on size.

To ensure maximum quality, sharpness, non-fading stability and permanence, all prints are personally crafted on current state-of-the-art archival pH-neutral papers with no optical brighteners: Museo Silver Rag 100% cotton 300 gsm or Epson Exhibition Fiber 100% fiber 325 gsm with an inkjet printer: either 11-color UltraChrome Pro K3/HDR pigmented inks in an Epson SureColor P20000, or (previously) 12-color LUCIA pigmented inks in a Canon imagePROGRAF.  I am also quite fond of facemounting large salon prints directly onto the latest Tru Vue UV-blocking anti-reflection (AR) Museum Glass or Optium Acrylic, then bonded to Dibond aluminum composite with a floating recessed back frame for a striking museum presentation.

Image Creation

All large format images were photographed with a 4x5-inch field view camera (K.B. Canham).  The original Fuji Velvia 50 transparencies were then digitized on a state-of-the-art Heidelberg Tango Pre-Press drum scanner at 2500 dpi.
