Facts About Artwork Reproduction
The color gamut (range of dynamic color) of early pigment-based inkjet inks were somewhat limited compared to the color gamut provided by artists' materials. The long lasting archivally stable pigment inks, which have microscopic particles of pigment suspended in a water based (aqueous) solution, were lacking in vibrancy and saturation. Later generations of aqueous ink have vastly improved color gamuts, and are even more stable for longevity, and more resistant to fading by UV light.
It is the objective to reproduce your artwork to match the color and density of the original as closely as possible. Some artists' pigments, however, do not reproduce on film or digitally on inkjet media exactly like the original, due to the fluorescent properties of the original paints. Some hues will not be exact, but it is possible sometimes to artificially enhance colors digitally to make them more saturated. They might not match the brightness of the original. Color adjustment and contrast control procedures are employed for successful color match, and in most cases when it is physically possible within the range of the digital media, a pleasing color match is achieved.
The fine art digital reproductions made by Photo Colorgraphix are a collaboration between the artist and a specially trained printing craftsman. We have expanded our boundaries by customizing our equipment, and offer protective coatings to ensure archivability and quality standards for the collector.
One of the great advantages that our artist clients enjoy by having their art reproduced digitally at Photo Colorgraphix is that there is no need for them to keep an inventory. A Limited Edition run can be as few as one piece, or as many or frequency as demand warrants.
