The Painted Pixel · Fine Art Printing
The paper is part
of the art.
Every substrate we stock was chosen for a reason. From ultra-smooth cotton rag to woven gallery canvas, each surface changes how your work looks and feels.
Fine art printing, done right.
We create museum-quality prints using archival pigment inks on the finest papers and canvas. This process is often known as Giclée printing, and is considered the gold standard in fine art reproduction. Each substrate we carry was chosen carefully to suit a wide range of professional presentations. Our papers combined with our top tier archival process ensures your prints capture every detail, color, and texture — for many years to come.
Many of our papers are OBA-free, providing a more stable, long-lasting surface that will remain true for years to come. For those who prefer a brighter white, we also offer papers containing Optical Brightening Agents (OBAs) — a valid choice for achieving a crisp, bright white base.

We offer four tiers of substrates — from accessible Economy papers to museum-certified Super Premium and gallery canvas — so there's a right option for every project, budget, and collector.
