A New Printer
I recently invested in a new Epson 4000 wide format printer for the creation of my digital art prints. The main advantage of this new printer is its ability to do larger size prints. Maximum output width is 17 inches and the length is only limited by the paper stock available. This should allow me to easily create 16x20 prints on heavy weight art papers. Because of the new wide-gamut pigmented inks and my own custom profiles, these prints have detail, tonality, color accuracy, and improved gamut beyond anything previously available. These prints are NOT cheap flimsy inkjet prints made with fade prone dye based inks from a home office printer. Image quality of these prints far surpass traditional print reproduction techniques. Colors are rich, detail sharp and best of all it allows me the artist the ability to control the art from creation to final signed print.

Archival Inks
The Epson Stylus Pro 4000 takes advantage of the company's award-winning Epson UltraChrome ink technology. UltraChrome Inks are water resistant and offer lightfastness ratings for color images up to 80 years on specific Epson papers under non-UV glass. When displayed under UV-protected glass, color lightfastness is rated at more than 100 years. This is better than the best widely available conventional photographic print life by 20-40 or more years. You can be assured my prints will last.

Detail, Detail, Detail
To guarantee the optimum in print quality all my prints are created from high resolution digital files. The reason for this is very simple, “resolution = detail.” I pride myself on the fine detail I incorporate into my artwork and for that detail to show on the final print it is important to start with a file that for a typical 12x16 print can be as large as 200 megabytes. This makes for a print that has vibrant color and smooth crisp lines.

Unique, Open Edition, Signed Prints
Unless otherwise noted these are Open Edition, signed original prints. It is my opinion that "Limited Edition" prints are of questionable value and often overly inflated in price, I prefer to offer a the buyer a chance to own a quality print at a reasonable price. But my prints are limited by virtue of the fact that each one is created slowly and carefully by me.

Ordering Prints
I personally oversee the creation of each print and inspect each of them for color and quality before I sign each print. Prices and shipping cost as well as a shopping cart system with a “Add to Cart” button is in place on this site to ease in ordering. If you prefer not to purchase online orders can be placed by sending a check or money order along with a description of the print desired to the address below. Be sure to include your name, address and contact info with your order.

To Preserve Your Print's Archival Quality
1. Handle only with clean dry hand or cotton gloves.
2. Store or display in moderate temperature and humidity.
3. Use archival acid-free products for mounting, matting, and framing.
4. Display under glass, and avoid long periods of direct sunlight.
