Print Info. and Ordering

The prints we provide have been photographed, printed, mounted and matted by John Gill personally. Although he has years of experience in a color darkroom, he now does his custom printing digitally. His images are recorded with 35mm and medium format film cameras and digital SLR cameras. John embraced digital printing when he saw that it enabled him to produce consistently better prints that were truer to the image recorded. Inks used in printing are archival pigment-based inks rated to be color stable for 100 years.

Actual colors seen on prints may vary from what is seen on your monitor. This is because color monitors utilize a variety of different color spaces and most users do not have properly calibrated monitors. Prints purchased will show enhanced detail over what can be seen on this site. Image files used for print are of much higher quality than files used for Web site display. Prints for purchase are double matted. Although all images are copyright protected, the copyright notice does not appear within the image of purchased prints. Prints are signed on the mat area below the print.

We do not sell prints that are not mounted and matted. We only sell prints that are mounted with a double mat. The prints come in a clear plastic wrap, which should be retained until the print is framed. We use acid-free Bainbridge Alphamat matting materials. We offer prints in four sizes shown in the chart below. When discussing sizes we go by the outside dimensions of the matted print including mat area. This is the same as the frame size or inside dimensions of the frame. In all cases, the dimensions of the image area will be smaller and the outside dimensions of the framed piece will be slightly larger. For the three larger sizes listed, the mat area is approximately 3” all around the print. In the 12” x 16” size it is slightly less.

FRAMING

WE ARE NO LONGER PROVIDING FRAMING SERVICES DUE TO LOSS OF OUR MOULDING SUPPLIER. WE ARE CURRENTLY SEARCHING FOR A NEW SOURCE OF COMPATIBLE FRAMES.

MATTING

Our outer mat will be snow white unless the customer prefers and requests a warm white (light cream) outer mat. The inner mat provides a nice accent and a sense of depth. The inner mat is usually a dark brown, green, blue, or black, depending on the colors in the print. Because only a small portion of the inner mat shows (about 1/8 to 1/4 in.), it does not create a problem with any décor. Its purpose is merely to enhance the print itself and the color is chosen by us to complement the print you choose. If the buyer prefers a white on white double mat rather than a small accent of color, it should be stated on the order form. The fact that our prints have won literally dozens of professional awards should assure the buyer that we take pride in all we do and that the prints meet professional standards.
