BIG PRINTS
BIG PRINTS – new digital camera images have now
surpassed the quality of film (not to say the silver-halide art
form isn't still deserving of its rightful place – and certainly
photographers like Clyde Butcher will maintain the art form)
and the large megapixel digital cameras matched with large
format printers allow our walls to display a photographic
representation that looks and feels much like a painting.

Last year I discovered a true photographic print with vivid,
brilliant color surpassing any I have viewed. The print
process at Allied Photographic in Grand Rapids, Michigan,  
begins with a “true photographic print”. Photographic paper
is exposed to laser activation in complete darkness and then
processed with standard wet chemistry. The plastic
emulsion layer is then stripped from the photographic paper
and impressed onto canvas with a specialized mounting
press. The resulting image of up to thirty six by fifty four
inches is carefully mounted to a support frame yielding a
stunning work of art that everyone will be proud to display.
The image can be framed to match any interior, with or
without glass as it has a UV protective coating applied to it.
Inkjet Giclees have become an exciting form of
expression for modern photography. Large format
inkjet printers produce a splendid textured image on
canvas. The canvas is then mounted on a wood
frame and wrapped two inches around the sides. The
wrap-around gives a unique depth in its extended
view. Visually this print surface resembles a painting
as much as it does a photograph. The archival inkjet  
print is UV coated and will last one hundred plus
years. These images can be produced in sizes up to
thirty six by fifty four inches.

ALL OF MY PHOTOGRAPHY CAN BE PRODUCED AS
BOTH “TRUE PHOTOGRAPHIC PRINTS” OR INKJET
GICLEE WRAPS.

AS THE PHOTOGRAPHIC PRINT IS LABOR INTENSIVE
ITS PRICE IS SLIGHTLY HIGHER.
