What is a Digital Art Scan?
Fine Art Scanning in Miami
A quality, high resolution digital scan is the first step to a good print. By using custom profiles, precise color correction and expert scanning, we can offer you the highest quality color from your fine art. Our custom scanning equipment captures all of the subtleties of fine works of art, from brush stroke texture to deep shadow detail. Our scans can be used for creating limited edition Giclee prints, offset lithographs, posters, brochures, postcards and even Internet Web pages. We are the only direct art scanning in miami with the ability to scan sizes up to 8′ in any direction that we know of. Direct digital scans are an excellent method for archiving artwork for future use. If you are about to sell a piece you may want to scan it first to obtain a high resolution digital master for creating future reproductions. We keep your scans on file and we constantly back up all our hard drives to ensure your work is safe.
Why a Direct Scan
Quality Digital Art Scanning produces excellent giclee prints
When you do a direct scan from your artwork, the prints are only one generation away from the original. The advantage of having only one generation or step from the original is that you will get more accurate color and detail in general. We will be able to reproduce all the brushstrokes, lines and even the most delicate washes or color gradations in your originals. We are able to scan works that have heavy textures, collages and raised portions.
Your Artwork is Safe in our “Art Vault”
Your Artwork is Safe in our ART VAULT
Whether your art is shipped to us or dropped off in person, your artwork will always be handled with respect and the utmost care. With that in mind we have created “the Art Vault”, a place to organize, label and safe keep your original art as well as your prints from the moment you leave them in our possession until you come to pick them up. From the moment your art arrives at Prints Giclee Shop we minimize handling it as much as possible. We have to scan your artwork unframed, if your artwork is framed we can remove it from the frame, scan it and have our on staff professional framer put it back in the frame for you. We would only do this with you permission and there is no fee for this service. Stretched or unstretched canvases can be scanned without any problems.
