About Quality Prints

Art has intrinsic value; it is meant to be enjoyed. Nevertheless, people purchase limited edition prints, not only because of the beautiful images, but because as limited editions sell out, they increase in value. Prints retain their value because the number of multiples is limited. Scarcity increases value, so a limited edition will go up in price when the final piece is sold. Because of the law of supply and demand, selling an entire edition drives the price up almost immediately after the edition sells out.

All my prints are high quality Giclées. That means they are printed with fade resistant* pigmented inks on proper rag paper (similar to watercolour paper). I’ve decided not to produce the lesser quality photo offset reproductions. I would rather focus on high quality right from the outset. I want people to be confident knowing that when they buy one of my prints they are buying quality.

The prices posted on my website are consistent across the board. That is, the retail cost is the same in each location that carries my work. I expect prices may go up sometime in the future, but never down. So if you buy a print, you can be sure that the value will not be compromised.

I keep the numbers low on my limited edition prints. The reason I keep the edition limit to a low number is that it increases the value of each individual print. You can be sure that there is only a certain number of your print in circulation.

I do not have any "unlimited" or "open edition" prints.

*Fade resistent does not mean fade proof. All prints will fade over time if you do not take proper care. For example, you should not hang your print in a location where it would be exposed to direct sunlight.
