Art Reproduction
Fine art digitizing, film scanning, and large format giclée printing using museum-quality archival papers.
Art Duplication begins with a good scan
Getting artwork into digital form is our specialty! We use a range of equipment to digitally capture art, including scanners, DSLR cameras, and up-to-date high end computers for graphic arts.
We are able to digitize a wide variety of artwork, both large and small, even very small artwork such as coins or postage stamps. We have digitized everything from old newspapers and books to paintings, drawings, old photos, historical documents, and tapestries.
We scan, we print!

What it Means to Print Work at an Exhibition Standard
Printing at exhibition standard means producing photographs and artworks in a way that supports long-term display, preserves artistic intent, and meets the expectations of galleries, museums, and collectors.
- Archival Materials and Processes: Exhibition standard prints are made using archival pigment inks on archival substrates. The prints resist fading, color shifting, and material degredation when properly cared for.
- Color Accuracy and Intentional Output: Printing for an exhibition is about translating the artist's intent accurately and consistently, which involves color-managed workflows, careful attention to tonal range and contrast, and adjustments made specifically for print.
- Consistency Across a Body of Work: When work is shown together, it needs to feel cohesive across paper choice, print size, borders and margins, color and density. Subtle inconsistencies become noticeable when viewed side by side!
- Thoughtful Presentation and Finishing: Presentation matters! This step involves proper trimming and mounting, framing that protects and supports the work, and hanging systems that are appropriate for the venue.
- Professional Communication + Preparation: One of the most important parts of printing at an exhibition standard is preparing the files correctly at the proper file resolution and color space.
