ArtfulPrint Provides Limited Edition Fine Art Resources with Unlimited Possibilities

Press Release:  7/28/2011

The art world is becoming more accessible these days thanks to the internet. ArtfulPrint is in the process of defining it even further through its Limited Edition offerings that are targeted at the design and hospitality industries. A division of Columbia Enterprises, a New York based company that has been in the printing business for over sixty years, ArtfulPrint utilizes the newest printing technology to diversify the company’s offerings.

Over the last decade there has been a considerable increase in the number of people who spend money on contemporary art as a pastime and as an investment. This includes companies who are either looking to enhance their corporate environments or utilize artwork to set themselves apart from the competition in the design and hospitality industry. Rather than spend huge sums for original art, they are looking to fulfill a need for beautiful images at affordable prices with a value added edge. ArtfulPrint Limited Edition offerings provide the price point, but also give value to the pieces by being available in a limited numbered series. Once they are sold there are no more and this sets them apart.

ArtfulPrint has assembled a bank of artists whose work lend itself to being reproduced in a signed and numbered series that notably has a certificate of authenticity as validation. These works of art cover a wide range of styles from contemporary to abstract. Award winning painters and photographers have been selected to make up the stable of artists that ArtfulPrint represents.

The Giclee printing process is what has made it possible to achieve a reproduction quality that in some ways exceeds the appearance of traditional lithography. This printing is superior to traditional presses in its ability to offer a wider gamut of color. Giclee uses pigments not dyes in the printing process to insure lasting reproduction. Typically it is very hard for printers to reproduce all colors as saturation increases. More colors are captured with the Giclee process and because the pigments used provide greater brilliance there is a wider range of color possible.
