Each framed giclee print is professionally manufactured with archival pigmented inks and the highest level of color gamut available in printing (12 color printing). My service provider uses aqueous wide format printers from Epson with the Ultra Chrome ink set and Canon with their LUCIA EX pigment ink set for superior accuracy, range and longevity.
Photographs are printed on Epson Somerset Enhanced Velvet paper. This textured paper, favored by artists and photographers alike, is milled by the St. Cuthberts Mill in Somerset, England. It is an acid-free, 100% cotton, single-side coated paper, showing a natural white finish with a slightly textured matte surface that has a soft velvet-like feel. A high-quality, mould-made paper, it is ideal for digital fine art reproductions.

Frames are gallery style, made from solid wood with a wood veneer finish. They have a width of 0.88" & depth of 0.88". Each frame is built in house by my production partner in Texas.
The single mat is conservation grade, 100% virgin alpha-cellulose 2 ply with a white core. Acid-free and lignin-free, the mat is fade resistant, digitally cut for ultimate precision and meets all conservation quality standards set by the Fine Art Trade Guild.
All framed prints come standard with Premium Clear® acrylic glass. This high quality clear acrylic product provides protection as well as safety from injury and breakage. It is a lightweight, shatter resistant and general purpose framing grade substrate produced by Tru Vue. Both Epson and Canon promote their inks as being resistant to fading over time. However, to extend the life-span of the colors, it is best to hang the print away from direct sunlight and avoid extreme temperature changes or exposure to humidity.
Prints, frames and mats are not eligible for returns or refunds except if the items are damaged, in which case my production partner will replace the item at no charge. Damaged items must be reported within 30 days of order date to qualify for a full replacement. Much research, time and effort has been spent in order to make sure you receive the highest quality of art and materials. That being said, all sales are final. Your understanding is appreciated and it is my expectation that you are pleased with your purchase. Thank you!
A little about the art...
Every macro photograph is from an original work of art, most are acrylic & mixed medium on canvas. They are painted, photographed & processed in Beverly Hills and Downtown Los Angeles by yours truly, Peter Rox of The Future. The digital photo has a native dimension of 7360x4912 at 300dpi. The art was painted and photographed outside on the patio of my previous apartment on Robbins Dr. in Beverly Hills or on roof of my building here at the Wayside Press. I use a Nikon d810 DSLR camera with Sigma 105mm macro lens, then color on a MacBook Pro using Photoshop CC and a BenQ color correction monitor calibrated with X-Rite i1Profiler and finally finish with heaping spoonful of magical pixy dust.
