For all canvas and paper prints, Heidi Emma has enlisted the service of a professional art photogrpaher to capture the colours, textures and intricies of the original. Painstaking colour matching is part of the process to ensure it is hard to pick the difference between original and print.
These are high quality reproductions using archival high quality materials. To ensure the value of your purchase, each is a limited edition print, with no more than 50 paper prints, and 50 canvas prints in production.
“Un-stretched canvas”
“Un-stretched” means that the painting is printed on high quality canvas but not stretched over a timber frame or finished with hanging wire. This product will require framing at a framers of your choice once you receive it. This print selection is sealed for longevity, however it is recommended that canvas surfaces are still treated with a high level of care to avoid scratching to the image surface. The benefit of this option is that it ships carefully rolled and in a postal tube with tissue protection and easy storage ready for when you require framing. We use 400gsm Canvas with a Matte Surface Ilford Fine Art Canvas Galicia for these matt canvas prints.
“Stretched canvas”
“Stretched” means the print is printed on canvas, sealed and stretched across a premium 38mm timber frame, neatly finished including felt stoppers and hanging rope. Unwrap and hang immediately in that special spot.
“Framed Canvas”
“Framed” means the artwork is a canvas print stretched using 38mm stretcher bars, with a 55mm deep float frame attached in Tasmanian Oak (raw finish). This method of framing features a 3mm shadow gap between the frame and print. It is neatly finished including felt stoppers and hanging wire. Unwrap and hang immediately in that special spot.
“Textured paper”
When you choose a paper print, you choose a high-quality reproduction using archival inks and paper. We use 310gsm Cotton Rag with Light Texture Ilford Matt Cotton Medina due to the way to paper captures and enhances the beautiful texture of Heidi Emma’s oil paintings. This print has high-colour consistency and gamut alongside excellent image stability.
Textured art paper prints can be purchased as print only or framed. Each are individually numbered and signed by Heidi Emma. They come with a white border and artist’s signature at the bottom
Unframed prints are carefully laid flat between tissue paper and board to post (small prints), or rolled between tissue paper and sent in a postal tube for protection (larger prints).
Selecting a framed paper print means all the hard work is done for you. No framers to visit, just unwrap and hang. It has a raw deckled edge to the print itself and we float the artwork on a 3-5mm backing then use spacers and a bottom mat board to create depth and space between the art and the edge of the box frame for a superior viewing experience. Your print is protected by UV 3mm museum grade and 99% UV filtering Perspex. You may choose between either a white or raw Tasmanian oak frame.
