PLAQUE MOUNTS
Plaque mounting is an affordable alternative to custom framing
for your photos, posters, prints and more. No glare and
no glass to break. UV protected and ready to hang on the
wall. Your print is permanently bonded to a wood, aluminum
or plexiglass substrate so it will not buckle, wrinkle or
fade.
Colours are more vibrant and the image appears sharper than
ever before, standing out with a near 3D effect. The adhesive
facemount film contains UV stabilizers so the glue won't
yellow and colours will remain vivid for years.
You provide the print or digital file and we will create
your custom plaque.
For prints mounted on a wood substrate, edges can be finished
in a variety of colours for a frame-free contemporary look,
ready to hang on the wall. No special hanging hardware is
required. If you wish a frame, we have some made for them.

ACRYLIC
PHOTO MOUNTING
Seeing your Photos
on Acrylic is an eye-popping experience. The combination of
super vivid printing and the perspective of depth behind the
acrylic creates an incredible vibrancy to your photo that really
makes it pop. If you are looking for a medium that will give
your images maximum punch, this is definitely it.
Your image is printed onto Premium Metallic or Luster photo
paper. The photo is then face mounted onto the back of a 99.99%
optically pure, cast 1/4" acrylic sheet (plexiglass). This
gives your photo the stunning eye popping 3D effect. The backside
of the print is then protected with a white stability board
for extra longevity and protection against moisture and handling.
Due to this printing technique, the UV resistant inks, and the
natural UV inhibitors in the Acrylic, these prints will have
a fade life of 120 years.
The edges are then beveled and finished off with your choice
of edge color (black, white, gold, silver, brown, blue, green
or red) this captures the image giving it great depth compared
to unfinished edges. The image is printed right to the edge
of the acrylic for a sleek modern look.
Then we mount a 3/8 inch deep aluminum moulding on the back
so that your print floats off the wall when hung.
Samples can be viewed in the store.
For the best results images should be submitted as a 300
dpi jpeg or as an .eps or vector .pdf digital file.

ALUMINUM PHOTO MOUNTING
With aluminum photo
mounting, the image is printed onto premium photo paper (Luster
or Metallic). The print is then mounted and laminated (Glossy
or Matte Finish) onto 1/8" raw aluminum. The image is not
printed onto aluminum so as to retain the best possible color
and resolution for your images. If you are looking for a sleek,
low profile modern style this is the product for you. The perfectly
flat 1/8" aluminum feels solid and definitive. Its weight
alone makes you feel like you are holding something important
and of substance.
If you want this
same sleek modern look at a more affordable price we can mount
and laminate your image onto 1/8" Dibond (hard plastic
black core sandwiched between two thin sheets of aluminum).
Both products come ready to hang with a 1/2" aluminum frame
attached to the back giving your finished product the illusion
that it is floating off the wall.

CANVAS
TRANSFERS
This technique transforms
fine art prints, posters and photos into rich beautifully textured
works of art that simulate the look and feel of an original
painting.
Canvas transfers are produced by first cropping the print to
the image (borders and text are removed) and then applying a
durable, non-reflective, UV-blocking laminate film onto the
surface of the fine art print or poster. This protects the image
from fingerprints, dirt, moisture and other contaminants.
Using a special process the image is then lifted from the paper
backing leaving only the colored ink. The laminated image is
then placed onto a high quality 7 oz. acid free primed artist
canvas and heat sealed in a press. As a result, the image takes
on the texture of the canvas giving it the look and feel of
an original.

BRUSH STROKES
To further
replicate the look of an original painting, we can add visual
and textural depth to your canvas transfers by applying hand
painted brush strokes with a clear gel medium. We pride ourselves
on being able to capture the fine detail from the original artist's
brush strokes and strive to ensure that each canvas transfer
is a beautiful expression of style and creativity. Every canvas
transfer will be unique unto itself (a one of a kind).
