This morning I added a new ATC (Artist Trading Card) print to my shop. I love this little size, because this is a scale I feel very comfortable working in. This mini format captures the sweetness, elegance and simplicity I love. It looks like little jewelry.
This piece was printed on Epson Velvet Fine Art Paper. Prints made on this 100% cotton rag, archival paper are difficult, if not impossible, to differentiate from the original art.
I’ve matted this artwork to an 8″ x 10″ size, which fits standard-sized frames that you can find in any big-box store. Thanks for having a look.
Nice work! Do you print these yourself? Can you share what printer you use?
Linda, Thanks for your comment! Yes, I print these myself. I use an Epson printer. Mine is an older model (R800), but I’ve never been disappointed.
It uses archival inks, and Epson is pretty much the industry standard for art and photo printers. I can’t recommend a current model, since I haven’t done any research lately (mine is still going strong!), but there are several out there now that I’m sure are superior printers.
I’ve read recommendations to buy a printer that’s able to print larger sizes (9″ x 13″ and up). Mine prints to 8.5″ x 11″. When I replace it, I’ll definitely go a size or two up.
