image fits watercolor paper by design - gives unique look

photo of Art Print from digital painting Mound 2 Mountains
This is a photo of a 13 x 19 inch print of my most recent digital painting. I wanted to show how it fills the page. The size of the digital painting was designed to fit this size paper with the smallest margin possible on the Outhouse Studios in house printer.
It curves in because the camera wasn’t perfectly centered - I didn’t take the proper time on this one - sorry. But nevertheless, I think it gives an idea of how a print can look. I think the thin border of white is actually pretty cool and shows off the uniqueness of the digital medium.

A well received piece and learning how to print it well

Salinas Valley 1 - digital painting - first art print
When I first got a high quality wide-format printer - this was my favorite piece. It was fairly recent at the time and it was what I wanted to see printed first.
I am sure you can imagine that type of excitement of a new printer and printing on watercolor paper for the first time.
The first print actually came out beautiful, but it wasn’t accurate. It was way too bold and bright - although part of its beauty. Like most artists and creative people, I was looking for a larger element of control.
Through a great deal of controlled experimentation, the printing quality and color accuracy that
Outhouse Studios can achieve is artistically perfect - I don’t think I could ask for better.
Salinas Valley 1 is a well received piece, and I have had the opportunity to refine the printing and also have it printed larger -
22×28 inch, matted and
framed. The blue is even more incredible printed and the row crops in the Salinas valley hills have a great deal more depth.
