Here are but a few of the many tips in our eBook.
Prints:
Fellow artists quite often ask us how to go about getting good quality, inexpensive prints made. We, initially, also experienced this same problem and were unsuccessful in our attempts to solve it, including using local print shops and internet printers. It was just too expensive for us, especially if we only wanted a few hundred copies of an original. The last quote that we received from a printer for 250, one color, matte prints was $424. Of course the price increased dramatically for more colors and more copies.
Here are just a few of the invaluable Tips that you will find in our “Charcoal Drawing Secrets & Tips” eBook.
Tip: Take your own high quality, “digital” photos of your work for printing. Today’s equipment makes this extremely easy. Digital allows you to practice without penalty of cost. Position your work on your easel at eye level. Stand back approximately 3 – 4 feet and frame your picture before shooting. USE the highest quality setting. This will result in a large file, but remember, it’s for future prints NOT for posting on the internet. You can use any photo shop program to reduce it down for internet posting or emailing.
Tip: Invest in a wide format printer. There are many, inexpensive, wide format printers now on the market. Try for one that produces 24 inch wide prints (or 18 inch minimum) You will find that the quality is Fantastic.
We guarantee that you won’t be disappointed.
