Fine Art printing is growing in popularity. As South Africa typically follows the worldwide trends, Fine Art printing is fast becoming the new alternative. I believe the ongoing popularity of canvas is to thank for this shift in printing. Client are beginning to see their images in a new light, photographers are narrowing down their selection to quality images they want to see and display in new ways. Studio22 offers a specialised Fine Art service to photographers and artist who wish to print on the finest of art papers. Hahnemuhle ‘German Etching’ is our first paper on offer. Printing on an Epson 9900 professional large format printer with the new Epson HDR Ultra Chrome inks, the archival quality of these products can produce a black and white image to last 200 years (as published by Epson).

Who better to print photographic images than professional photographers who truly understand photography? At Studio22 (owned and operated by professional photographers with over 50 years combined experience) we start by looking at the technical aspects of the images in order to give the best advise to our clients. We have numerous sample images printed on alternative paper types to guide you in making the right choice for your image. As with any artwork, the medium plays a large part of the final product. Supported by a team of over 20, we know that by producing the best quality prints, we are not only printing for our clients but each print is a Studio22 advertisement.

We have photographed a print by Jules Morgan to show off the paper. These image have been photographed in order to enhance the texture for the purposes of this blog. “German Etching” is a 310gsm textured off-white paper, printing is soft in tone and matt with the feel of a darkroom hand-print.

What a pleasure to do business with people that are as passionate about the Industry. Always make you feel welcome…… some times have to drag myself away, as it feels like home from home.
