A Guide to Fine Art Printing: What Artists Should Know

Fine art printing, also known as giclée printing, uses archival ink and high-quality materials to create professional-grade photographs. It differs from photo printing, which reproduces photographs on light-sensitive material. There are various techniques in fine art printing, such as etchings, screen printings, lithographs, oleographs, and giclée printing. The process of creating fine art prints involves formatting files, setting image resolution, monitor calibration, sharpening images, test printing, and final printing and certification. Copyright law protects artists' intellectual property. For fine art printing needs, consider The Stackhouse as a reliable vendor.
