“Canson Infinity encompasses a range of digital fine art media that exceeds the ISO 9706 museum grade standard and that has been developed to meet galleries and museum’s longevity requirements. Canson Infinity Digital Fine Art papers and canvases have passed all five Wilhelm Imaging Research (WIR) print permanence tests in all conditions: light stability on display, stability in dark storage, resistance to atmospheric ozone, resistance to high-humidity environments and water resistance.”

“For 450 years, Canson® has invited artists, amateurs and professionals to freely express their creativity on high quality papers … Canson has made a commitment to offer high quality products that reflect the values of the brand … Creativity, Innovation, Trust, Quality and Proximity.”

Dan and I have spent the last couple of months researching and testing fine art canvas media, with special attention given to weave pattern and print longevity – we are particularly impressed with the Canson® brand of digital fine art media!

Sunset Photo Metallic Paper enables you to create stunning prints that previously could be output only in a darkroom. The metallic, high-gloss surface on this 10-mil, 255gsm photo paper, results in prints that are sharp, vibrant, and exceptionally rich-looking. With this breakthrough paper, prints look very similar to those produced by labs that use KODAK PROFESSIONAL ENDURA Metallic VC Digital Paper™ in conjunction with a photo processor such as a Durst Lambda or a LightJet.

The utterly distinctive look of Sunset Photo Metallic Paper comes from a combination of a subtle sheen infused in the base paper and a high-gloss reflective finish. Sunset Photo Metallic Paper will enable you to add new levels of dimensionality and depth to your fine art prints that stand out from the others.

Sunset Photo Metallic prints are only $14.00 per square foot! If you would like to see samples or to discuss other paper options for your fine art images, please Contact Us.

Made from 90% bamboo fibres and 10% cotton, this natural warm-toned and OBA free genuine art paper offers maximum aging resistance, an extremely large colour gamut and a high colour density. Its premium Inkjet coating also offers a very high level of water resistance. Bamboo 290, with its fine, soft surface feel, lends itself particularly well to warm-toned colour and monochrome prints of fine art photography and fine art reproduction.

The traditional Hahnemühle paper mill has developed the worldwide first Fine Art inkjet paper made from bamboo fibers. The natural white paper with a warm tone combines spiritual photography with environmental considerations. “Bamboo 290” consists of fibers from highly renewable bamboo grass… a premium, soft Fine Art paper from ultra-pure bamboo fibers and pure spring water. This paper opens up a whole new artistic and spiritual dimension in Fine Art printing.

I’m particularly impressed with the deep rich blacks this paper yields and I feel it is a great choice for hand-drawn fine art reproductions!
