Art Print Options

Welcome to my collection of art prints! I offer a variety of formats to suit your preferences and needs, each with its own unique charm and features. Here’s a quick guide to help you decide:

5x7 Photo Prints

Pros:

Printed on high-quality photo paper, these prints boast stunning resolution and vibrant colors that bring the artwork to life.

Cons:

The delicate paper requires careful handling as it is more brittle compared to other materials.

11x17 Poster Prints

Pros:

Printed on heavyweight poster paper, these prints offer a beautiful blend of durability and high-quality detail. The thicker material makes them sturdier and perfect for framing or hanging.

Cons:

The colors, while still vivid, are not as bright as those on photo paper.

Acrylic Shikishi Board Prints

Pros:

These unique prints are made on durable acrylic boards, eliminating the need for a frame. They also feature glitter and special effects for a magical finish, making them a standout option.

Cons:

Due to their premium materials and added effects, these prints are priced higher than other options.

Whether you’re looking for something vibrant and detailed, sturdy and classic, or eye-catching and unique, there’s a print here for everyone! 😊
