Prints of paintings and drawings are a popular way to share and enjoy art. Many artists now make reproduction prints as part of their practice.<\/p>\n

If you want to make prints of your artwork, you need to consider the factors and costs that go into the process. There are inexpensive options which can be achieved at home, although an artists’ needs will vary. What you choose can depend on where the prints will be seen, if they might be part of an exhibition of work or a portfolio, or given to friends and family. We\u2019ve explored the main factors worth considering when making reproduction prints of paintings and illustrations.<\/p>\n

\n

Why Print on Digital Paper Rather than Regular Paper?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Digital papers have a special coating to ensure inkjet receptivity. This is similar to how size works on an artist’s canvas. The coating is designed to prevent the ink from wicking or percolating along the paper fibres, which can lead to colour distortions and blurring. <\/p>\n

Some papers have an overcoating, which is how it gets a glossy or pearl finish. For example, when making pearl papers, papermakers use a porous \u2018micropore\u2019 plastic coating that holds pigment inks on the surface, or in the pores themselves. This allows colours to appear at their most luminous. This is not possible when printing on regular paper, as it does not have the same coating and the ink tends to sink into the paper, making the colours appear dull and faded.<\/p>\n

\"Printing<\/a>
Printing on uncoated paper will cause the colour to sink into the paper, making the print appear dull and faded.\u00a0<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Digital paper is typically coated on one side, unless the packaging states otherwise. To double-check you are printing on the coated side of the paper, lightly touch one corner of it with a wet finger. The right side of the paper for printing will feel a little sticky.<\/p>\n

\n

Image Quality<\/strong><\/p>\n

A high quality image is necessary for a good print. To be able to make a high quality print, the camera or scanner used to capture or scan the artwork must be able to do so at a high level of resolution. To compare, most digital photos are recorded at a resolution of 72 DPI (\u2018dots per inch\u2019). The image file of an art print should be closer to 300 DPI. This is because the more dots of colour that can be printed in a small area, the more detailed your final image will appear.<\/p>\n

You can photograph your work at home<\/a> with a camera or your phone. Taking your artwork to a professional photography studio will guarantee it is captured accurately and at the best resolution. You can also have artwork professionally scanned on a drum scanner.<\/p>\n

For printing at home, there are resources online<\/a> which can help identify inkjet printers that use pigment ink-based systems. ICC profiles provided by papermakers can also help you match up and reproduce colour quality. This ensures the final print quality is of a good standard. ICC (International Color Consortium) profiles are sets of data that describe the properties of a colour space and the range of colours (gamut) that a monitor can display, or a printer can print. <\/p>\n

\n

Photographing Your Artwork<\/strong><\/p>\n

First, find a neutral coloured wall. Hang the artwork at a height where the middle of the piece will be parallel to where the camera will be – either on a tripod or resting on a table, or some other sturdy surface.<\/p>\n

If you are working indoors, make sure the room has plenty of windows and natural light. Uneven light across your artwork can be balanced out by holding up a white surface; the light bounces off this and illuminates the areas of your artwork furthest away from the window.<\/p>\n

Indirect sunlight provides good lighting, so some artists choose to photograph their work outdoors when it\u2019s cloudy or overcast. If you would rather work indoors, you will need to set up a lighting kit. If you don\u2019t have access to one, you can evenly diffuse the light with a white sheet or white plastic between the lights and your work.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>

Ensure the camera is set so the lens lines up with the middle of the painting, positioned so that the frame is filled with most of the painting, with some of the background visible as a border. You can crop this out later, but it gives you some leeway when taking the photo. Typical studio settings for a DSLR require a low ISO, usually around 100, and an f-stop of between f-8 and f-11.<\/p>\n

You can use a remote or timer when taking the photo so the shutter button doesn\u2019t jolt the image out of focus. Afterwards, you can use photo editing software to colour match and correct any inconsistencies caused by the camera. This allows you to ensure that what you see on the screen looks as close to the artwork as possible.<\/p>\n

\n

Types of Paper<\/strong><\/p>\n

There are a range of specialist digital fine art papers that can be used for printing works in all mediums.<\/p>\n

\"Digital<\/a>
Popular surfaces from Hahnem\u00fchle<\/a>, Legion<\/a>, and St Cuthberts Mill<\/a>.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

It can be more difficult to create prints from watercolours than from other kinds of paintings. This is because of their transparency and granulation. Artists looking to print watercolour paintings can choose from a selection of mould-made papers with textured surfaces, which help to replicate the character and feel of traditional watercolour paintings. They are typically available in bright white and natural white colours to match most types of work.<\/p>\n

\"Artwork<\/a>

Papermakers like St Cuthberts Mill also offer digital papers that feel similar to their traditional ones. For example, their Bockingford and Somerset digital ranges let artists match their prints to the look and feel of the original artwork.<\/p>\n

\"St<\/a>

Oil and acrylic painters can also choose from textured canvas surfaces and weights, as well as Gloss, Matt, and Satin finishes.<\/p>\n

\"Artwork<\/a>

These papers are also great for reproducing prints and etchings. Some papermakers also produce specialist printmaking and etching papers, such as Bockingford, which is mould-made.<\/p>\n

Hahnem\u00fchle, Legion, and other papermakers also provide ICC profiles for your printer. To reproduce accurate colour quality, certain settings should be calibrated before printing. To achieve accurate colour quality over longer periods, artists can use profiles. For one-off prints, profiles aren’t always necessary. To learn more, visit the handling instructions on Hahnem\u00fchle’s ICC page<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Double-sided papers are also popular and versatile. Creating your own book is another way of using digital papers to present your work, such as by creating a catalogue for an exhibition, or a simple book to share with your friends and family.

Protecting Prints<\/strong><\/p>\n

If you are making prints at home to sell at art fairs, open studios, or online, you will want to package them for safe transport. If they are A2 or smaller, Jackson\u2019s Polypropylene Bags<\/a> are perfect – simply add a stiffener like a piece of mountboard (Daler Graduate<\/a> is ready cut and economical).<\/p>\n

Our Framing Department<\/a> offers a wide range of options for framing prints. This includes ready-made<\/a> and bespoke made to order<\/a> frames in a variety of sizes and styles.<\/p>\n
