We can mount prints to many non-traditional substrate materials (e.g. wood, cloth, ceramic, etc.)

Mounting:   We offer mounting on White 3/16” Foam Core up to 30x40”. Black Gator, Kraft board & MDF board up to 48”x96”.


Lamination:   Quality lamination services to protect your prints from scratches, and to give a higher level of UV protection to extend the longevity of your artwork. Available in 3 mils Matte, Gloss, and Satin or 10mil Textured Satin

For one-of-a-kind originals: We recommend archival custom framing. For mounting, making a copy of the artwork through scanning and/or copy work and creating a new print to mount is ideal. This ensures that no dust or foreign particles can cause an imperfection in the process. The original art is not compromised in any way.
