Print Types - Skip Weeks Fine Art Photography

FINE ART PRINT TYPES

Every photograph in my collection can be produced in any of these six museum-quality mediums. Each has its own character — choose the one that suits your space, your light, and your taste. All prices on each photograph’s page are delivered prices, including UPS shipping.

A note on framing: we do not sell our prints framed. Three of our mediums — acrylic, gallery canvas, and metal — arrive ready to hang with no frame needed. Our photographic prints and rolled canvas arrive unframed and will need framing or stretching — each type below tells you which.

Acrylic Photo Print

Your photograph is printed directly onto crystal-clear acrylic (no decal overlay) in your choice of 1/8″ or 1/4″ thickness — the thicker print adds rigidity for large pieces and an even deeper glass effect. The glossy sheen finish gives the image remarkable depth — colors appear to float beneath the surface with tremendous vibrancy and a luminous, almost three-dimensional quality. Polished edges, frameless float-mount presentation. This is our most luxurious presentation.

Best for: modern interiors, vibrant images, large statement pieces, collectors.

✓ Ready to hang — I attach an 8″ French cleat to the back of every acrylic print, so hanging is easy and secure. No frame needed.

Mirror-Edge Canvas Print — 1.5″ thick

Digitally printed on gallery-quality semi-gloss canvas and hand-wrapped around 1.5″ deep wooden stretcher bars. The image is mirrored around the edges (white or black edges also available), so none of the photograph is cropped or lost — and the staples stay hidden on the back. Each canvas is hand-wrapped by an experienced professional and stays taut for years. Arrives with a sawtooth bracket for quick hanging — no frame needed.

Best for: warm, classic interiors; anyone who wants a finished piece straight out of the box.

✓ Ready to hang — gallery-wrapped and finished. No frame needed.

Metal Print

Your image is dye-sublimated directly into .045″ coated aluminum — the color is infused into the metal, not printed on top of it. The result is luminous — almost backlit — with extraordinary detail, in a brushed-gloss finish. Scratch- and abrasion-resistant, waterproof, and UV-durable for a lifetime of display. Available in four finishes — white gloss, white matte, brushed gloss, and brushed matte (brushed gloss is our standard); corners are gently rounded for safe handling, and prints come in over 30 standard sizes up to 40″×30″. An ultra-modern presentation.

Best for: contemporary spaces, kitchens, offices; vivid high-contrast images.

✓ Ready to hang — I attach an 8″ French cleat to the back of every metal print, so hanging is easy and secure. No frame needed.

Rolled Non-Mounted Canvas Print

The same premium artist canvas print — UV- and water-resistant for years of display — shipped rolled in a protective tube without stretcher bars. A 2-inch border can be added for gallery wrapping. Stretch it yourself, take it to your local framer, or frame it flat — the most economical way to own a large canvas.

Best for: large sizes on a budget, custom framing projects.

Requires framing or stretching — arrives rolled and unmounted. We do not sell framed prints.

Glossy Photo Print

Super-rich, super-saturated color digitally printed on professional photo paper — punchy colors, deep blacks, maximum detail that retains the clarity of the original image. A traditional photographic print with a high-shine finish. Printed on archival-quality photo paper — fade-resistant for decades to come. Ships flat or rolled for framing to your taste.

Best for: maximum color impact; framing behind glass in controlled lighting.

Requires framing — arrives as a print only. We do not sell framed prints.

Matte Photo Print

The same archival-quality photo paper in a semi-gloss, non-reflective finish — fade-resistant for decades. No glare, elegant and understated — the connoisseur’s choice for bright rooms.

Best for: bright spaces, hallways, framing behind glass, subtle sophisticated presentations.

Requires framing — arrives as a print only. We do not sell framed prints.
