Artwork Reproductions
Artwork reproduction is the process of producing faithful reproductions of your original artworks. An ‘accurate’ reproduction is one of the key elements of being able to call a print a ‘Fine Art Giclée Print’. Artwork is scanned or photographed using professional scanning or photographic equipment in a light-controlled environment.
We scan all work at a minimum of 360dpi for lifesize reproductions. For enlargements we suggest 600dpi. Higher resolutions for specialist projects can be catered for up to 6400dpi. In essence a postage stamp can be printed with excellent detail as a poster.
I create reproductions for a wide genre of artists, including painters, illustrators, graphic designers, textiles printers, collagers and photographers.
Your original artwork is scanned with fantastic detail and excellent color reproduction.
Achieving Accurate Colour
We work in a professional colour controlled environement. We look to achieve very close colour matches. Once digitised, images can be tweaked to closely match the originals on a variety of differing fine art papers. In many cases the reproduction is indiscernable from the original but this is not something we can guarantee.
Creating a Physical Proof
Consistency is critical when offering ‘Limited Editions’. Once you are happy with the proof created, we place a copy on file to check against all future prints. This gives you peace of mind that you can maintain the accuracy of your edition going forward.
Often, you have sold your original and may not have a reference point.
Scanning Sizes
I have scanned artwork up to approximately A0 in size.
For framed artwork, where disassembly is not possible and much larger than A1, please choose ‘Artwork Photography’ from the menu.

Image Editing
Basic edits are included with the scanning costs. More complicated editing to tidy images, to digitally correct damage, isolate images from backgrounds etc, are charged at £45 per hour pro rata. Some tasks are very simple taking just a few minutes, others require greater time input.
I will always confirm approximate costs before undertaking any additional work.
