Behind the scenes with Chris Keeley

DSC_0490

There’s a lot of jobs that come through the door, all of them special in their own way of course. Sometimes I have to get jobs out so quickly I don’t have time to take pictures or document how they are made. But this time I decide to make the time to snap a few photos to show what goes on behind the scenes before art work goes on the walls.

This job was brought to me by a client who keeps me on my toes. He always seems to have a new photography project rolling in, on top of his full time job at UNH.  He’s attention to details and professionally makes it a pleasure to work with him.

Take a look for yourself. Visit Chris Keeley’s website and Facebook page. Chris is available for hire from cooperate shots to weddings. Browse his landscape collections, find something that will look nice framed in your home.

Well, Here are the snap shots for Chris’s Project that included 5 canvas wraps and a fine art print framed. They are displayed in Richardson’s Ice Cream in Middleton, Massachusetts.

Metallic Paper

Metallic Paper is another popular choice, although in my opinion it is not meant for all images, It tends to work best for images that have a saturated palette. Metallic is almost like a tinted pearl or silver. We can print up to 44″ wide

Canvas Printing can be used for some many different  projects, As long as it’s a digital file, anything can be printed. Canvas can sometime be coated for en extra gloss or UV protection. This application is great if you are planning or having you print outside used as house art, signage, or banners.

Smooth Fine Art Reproduction

Sometimes you need more than a photo paper, sometimes you are looking for a fine art print. Typically this is called a rag paper. Digital photography looks beautiful on a smooth fine art paper. It adds an artistic quality that is incomparable to any other print. There are also textured fine art paper but that works best for watercolor art reproductions

What is a giclée?

giclée (zhee-clay) n. 1. a type of digital fine-art print. 2. Most often associated with reproductions; a giclée is a multiple print or exact copy of an original work of art that was created by conventional means (painting, drawing, etc.) and then reproduced digitally, typically via inkjet printing. First use in this context by Jack Duganne in 1991, Los Angeles, California.

Some may like to argue the true meaning of  giclée, I totally get why. The World has changed since digital photography. We have so many more capabilities to get jobs done.  Giclée used to all be done with an Iris printer. But now more people use ink jets (not all ink jest are made the same) People have adopted or adapted the word   “giclée” to  mean an art reproduction

If you have water colors or oil painting we can photograph or scan and make beautiful prints ready for resale using smooth fine art , textured, luster, or canvas. We can help decide what will work best for your project.
