NZIPP Master Sue Bryce is not only a photographer but an artist.  "When I got together with Tawa Imaging and started printing on Photo Rag I found the media I had been looking for...it captured the sublety of the charcoal just like my original piece."

 

                        
Cotton based art papers that can be printed with any imagery….watercolour reproductions on watercolour paper...... they look just like the original, photographs
that look like paintings, kids' art for the relatives so you
can keep the original....

Limited Edition prints without printing hundreds...
Whatever quantity you require we can print to order with
a quality to match traditional printing methods, and they
can be reordered at any time.

Photography that looks like a painting...
Photographs take on a unique look on art papers, because they are a flat paper surface they really do look like paintings.

We have researched art papers for several years and have three varieties we keep in stock with a price range to give you options.

If you have different sized prints we can paste them onto a sheet to make the most cost-effective layout, just let us know your requirements and we will give
you the best value for your money.  Our largest size
is a maximum of 1100mm x upto 2000mm.

...this paper is truly amazing...
pastel and watercolour artwork looks just like the original.  We have taken work

tested and approved by the Fine Art Trade Guild.

Care Instruction

Fine art papers need to be treated with the same care as normal art papers.  They will damage easily if not treated with care.  We recommend you frame them behind glass.  This will also protect them from UV and environmental pollution.
