Gallery wrapped prints have the canvas wrapped around wood stretcher bars and are ready to hang. We offer several different stretcher bar depths to meet your needs. All gallery wrapped canvases are hand-sprayed with an archival UV coating of your choice and come with a wired back.
Rolled canvas prints are flat canvases that are not wrapped around stretcher bars. Ideal for shipping to clients who would rather save on postage costs and have canvases wrapped at their locale, or if you are going to mount the canvas to board or another substrate. Hand-sprayed with an archival UV coating of your choice.
Each of the matte smooth papers we offer has little to no texture, making them perfect for a wide range of imagery as they provide a blank canvas, as it were, to show off your artwork. Papers come in a variety of brightness and thickness to meet your needs. We suggest a heavier weight paper when making limited edition prints.
Ideal for watercolors, pastels, and charcoal imagery, our matte textured papers so perfectly mimic ‘real’ watercolor paper that it’s nearly impossible to tell that your print is a reproduction. We offer papers ranging from moderately to heavily textured to meet your needs.
These papers bring a slight sheen to your imagery and work very well with portraiture and landscape photography. They range from smooth, pearlized surfaces to moderately textured gloss surfaces that highlight saturated colors and high contrast black and white images. Our satin and pearl papers have the least reflective properties, while luster and baryta papers are glossier.
Our Baryta papers offer an amazing old school look and feel of a traditional silver print. Very reminiscent of early 20th and mid-century photographic papers, these Baryta papers are made with a special coating of barium sulfate that is used with photographs developed in a traditional darkroom. The textured, glossy surface adds loads of depth and offers some of the best color pop for your imagery.
Truly unique, these metallic papers add depth and brilliance to your imagery. The metallic pearl has a soft, smooth pearlized surface while the metallic silver will enhance any blue tones in your print. Metallic papers don’t work for all images, however, so you may want to talk to us prior to placing an order.
Gloss papers most closely resemble photographs that are printed in traditional darkrooms. The highly reflective, resin-coated surface allows your imagery to pop - especially high contrast and black and white photography. Best for times when you need your colors to be deeply saturated and sharp.
Accurate reproduction begins with an accurate digital master file. Craft Giclée provides professional artwork capture services to convert original artwork into high-resolution files suitable for fine art printing, editions, exhibitions, and archival use.
Each artwork is evaluated individually to preserve the qualities that define the original piece, including color accuracy, detail, tonal range, and surface texture.
Every original artwork presents unique capture considerations.
Before photography begins, we evaluate the artwork’s materials, surface characteristics, and visual qualities to determine the appropriate approach.
Different mediums respond differently during capture. Canvas, watercolor paper, acrylic, graphite, photography, and mixed-media artwork each have unique textures, surfaces, and reflective qualities that must be considered when creating an accurate digital file.
Our evaluation process considers:
The quality and control of light are critical to accurately reproducing original artwork.
Craft Giclée uses a professional Broncolor strobe lighting system designed specifically for controlled artwork photography.
The lighting environment is carefully adjusted to provide even illumination across the artwork surface while preserving texture, color, and tonal information.
Professional strobes produce a precisely controlled burst of light lasting only a fraction of a second. This brief exposure allows the artwork to be captured under consistent conditions while minimizing the influence of ambient light and helping preserve fine detail and surface characteristics.
Lighting is adjusted based on each artwork’s individual materials and surface qualities to accurately record:
Once the lighting environment has been established, the artwork is captured using a Fujifilm GFX100 II medium-format camera system.
The high-resolution sensor records the detail, color information, and tonal range required for professional fine art reproduction.
Combined with controlled studio lighting, this imaging system creates digital files with the information needed for:
Following capture, each file is prepared through a color-managed workflow designed specifically for fine art reproduction.
The completed digital master file provides a reliable reference for consistent future printing and reproduction.
A properly prepared master file allows artwork to be reproduced for:
Creating an accurate digital master file is the first step toward maintaining consistency between the original artwork and future reproductions.

Original artwork is professionally photographed using a high-resolution camera system in a controlled studio environment.
Photography allows us to capture the fine detail, surface texture, color relationships, and tonal information required for professional fine art reproduction. Scanning is often not suitable for original artwork because it may not accurately capture texture, surface qualities, or the characteristics that define the piece.
We capture a variety of two-dimensional original artwork, including:
Each piece is evaluated individually because different materials and surfaces require different considerations during capture.
You receive a high-resolution digital master file prepared specifically for fine art reproduction.
This file can be used for:
Yes. Different surfaces interact with light differently. Canvas, watercolor paper, acrylic, mixed media, and other materials require careful consideration during capture to accurately record texture, detail, and surface characteristics.
We capture a wide range of artwork sizes. Larger or specialty projects can be accommodated based on the artwork and project requirements. Contact us to discuss your specific piece.
