Brief overview of the artist

What kind of art print materials can I choose?

For every fine art print we offer different sizes & materials. In order match your personal requirements perfectly, you can choose among the following product customization options:

• Canvas: A canvas print, which shall not be mistaken with a real canvas painting, is a digital replica applied onto canvas. The great advantage of canvas prints is that they are relatively low in weight. This means, it is easy to hang up your Canvas print without the support of any wall-mounts. A canvas print is suitable for any type of wall.
• The acrylic glass print (with real glass coating): The print on acrylic glass, which is often referred to as a print on plexiglass, will convert the original into wonderful home decoration. Additionally, the acrylic fine art print offers a viable alternative option to dibond or canvas fine art prints. The artwork is being made thanks to state-of-the-art UV printing machines. This creates vibrant and deep colors.
• Aluminium dibond (metal print): These are metal prints on aluminium dibond material with an outstanding effect of depth. The Aluminium Dibond Print is your perfect introduction to art replicas with aluminum. For the Print On Aluminum Dibond, we print your chosen artpiece onto the aluminium composite surface. The bright parts of the original work of art shimmer with a silky gloss, however without the glare.
• The poster print (canvas material): The Artprinta poster print is a printed canvas paper with a slightly roughened texture on the surface. Please note, that depending on the absolute size of the poster we add a white margin 2 - 6cm around the painting in order to facilitate the framing.
