Artful Everyday Treasures

ImageKind closed their shop last year, and it’s been difficult to find a good replacement. I’ve seen that many online printers have mixed reviews. However, Printful has a solid reputation for quality archival printing and products, and FinerWorks offers specialty papers that are more expensive but are worth it if you’re looking for gallery-quality prints and or want to have the work framed. I’ve included both services here because your print needs may vary.

Printful's Enhanced Matte print paper specs:

The paper is a thick, durable, museum-quality paper that provides a professional look for art prints and posters. The paper's heavy weight and matte finish make it a popular choice for artists seeking a high-end product.

The paper's specs make it well-suited for high-quality printing, including:

Paper weight: 189 g/m²

Paper thickness: 10.3 mil

Opacity: 94%

ISO brightness: 104%

Source: Sourced from Japan

Printful does offer framed prints, so if you would like it framed, let me know and I’ll set it up.

FinerWorks Gallery-quality Prints:

I made the decision to have these specialty prints backed by acid-free fome core, matted with archival matboard, and framed with a minimalist black gallery frame

Paper: 14 x 14" Moab Exhibition Luster 300

1/2" Extra Border Added

Finish: Luster (a slight sheen without a harsh glare)

Weight: 300 gsm (grams per square meter), which provides a substantial, professional feel

Thickness: 11 mil (mils)

Color: Ultra-white base (CIE Whiteness 145) for true-to-life color reproduction and high contrast

Material: 100% Alpha-Cellulose, resin-coated (RC) base

Archival Quality: Acid- and lignin-free, meeting museum-quality preservation standards for long-lasting prints

Let me know if there’s an image for which you need a specific size or variation that’s not shown here and I’ll set it up in the shop for your purchase.

And if you’d like a print signed, we can arrange it!

Spring Poster print

$75.00

“Spring” is a painting which showcases the unity and balance of nature

This is a 20” x 20” poster print from Finer Works and is printed on Classic Photo Satin paper. These posters are done on high quality stock with archival inks:

Finish: Classic satin (low-glare) finish, offering a middle ground between matte and glossy paper.
Color & Contrast: Features a bright white point that allows for vivid colors, excellent contrast, and deep blacks.
Weight & Thickness: It has a weight of 100 g/m² and a thickness of 8 mil. This makes it a lightweight option compared to some of the heavier fine art papers (which can be 230-310 gsm).
Printing Process: Prints are made using Canon Lucia Inks (aqueous pigmented inks) on a Canon Pro-4000 printer, which contributes to its excellent color gamut and black and white capabilities.

Additional specs:

Poster will come shipped in a tube.
