About these prints
Archival prints of Amanda’s original gouache paintings, made to stay vivid for years to come.
- True to the original. Each painting is scanned at high resolution and carefully colour-matched to the original.
- Printed in-house on an Epson SureColor P906 with pigment inks that resist fading.
- Giclée print on 100% cotton fine art paper, hand-signed by Amanda. We choose the paper that best suits each painting.
- A white border. A5, A4 and A2 prints have a white border of at least 3, 4 and 6 mm. 5 × 7 in prints are printed edge to edge, so the painting’s outer edges are trimmed slightly, and they can stand on a desk or windowsill as they are. Where a painting’s proportions differ from the paper’s, the border is wider on two sides.
- Made to age well. Acid-free and lignin-free, so the paper resists yellowing and colour shift over time.
How your print arrives
5 × 7 in, A5 and A4 prints are sent flat, on an archival backing board in a clear, acid-free sleeve. Both are safe for long-term storage, and the board is recyclable. A2 prints are sent rolled in a tube. If your order includes an A2, any smaller prints are rolled into the same tube so everything arrives together.
Framing
Prints are unframed and unmounted. All four sizes fit standard ready-made frames, or a framer can make one to suit. For the best protection against fading, choose UV-protective glass and an acid-free backing board.
Caring for your print
- Handle it by the edges with clean, dry hands, as the matt surface marks easily.
- Until framing, keep it flat and away from light, dust and damp. For 5 × 7 in, A5 and A4 prints sent flat, the sleeve and board are a good place to store it.
- Let an A2 print, or any smaller print that came in its tube, rest flat after unrolling, or ask your framer to help.
- Hang it out of direct sunlight and away from damp rooms such as bathrooms.
