A brief guide to ordering prints

Hey art lovers! 

Before you place your print order, I wanted to share a few handy tips to help you choose the perfect size print for your frame.

All of my prints are selected from some of my most popular large original painting. They’re perfect for anyone with smaller spaces or budgets but still looking for something unique – a far cry from the mass-produced prints you often see on the high street.

Each print is made to order using a high-end Giclée printing process. Printed on premium Ilford Cotton Textured paper, these fine art prints are ready to slip into the frame of your choice, giving you a professional, gallery-worthy piece for your home.

Now, when it comes to frames, not all are created equal. Frame sizes and shapes can vary quite a bit, so it’s important to consider whether you want the print to fill the entire frame or if you prefer it to sit within a mount for a more classic look. Below, you’ll find an example to help guide your decision!

Will the image fill the entire frame or within a mount?

To help you choose the right size, it’s a good idea to double-check the dimensions of your frame (whether or not you’re using a mount) to find the best fit. If you're buying frames from Ikea, I’ve put together a handy table below showing their most popular sizes, along with the closest print sizes I offer.
Please note that while I’ve taken care to match the sizes as closely as possible, some prints may be slightly cropped or have a border that might need trimming to fit perfectly. But don’t worry – it’s an easy fix!

Larger prints will arrive rolled in a sturdy cardboard tube. To flatten your print, simply remove it from the tube and let it rest flat for a little while. If you want to speed up the process, place a few heavy objects (like large books) on top – it’ll flatten out beautifully in no time!

Looking for a size that’s not listed? No worries! Just drop me an email, and I’ll do my best to accommodate your request.

Interested in a deep-edged canvas instead? I’ve got you covered!

You can also opt for a ‘hybrid’ canvas – a fantastic way to own something that feels incredibly close to the original. My London-based printers use museum-grade canvas and cutting-edge printing techniques to deliver exceptional quality. These canvas prints can be shipped worldwide, which makes them a great, budget-friendly option. Once it arrives, just take it to your framer to have it stretched and framed to your liking.

For my U.K. collectors, I can take care of the stretching and framing for you and arrange delivery through my specialist courier service, anywhere in the country.

Canvas prints are special orders, so feel free to get in touch for pricing! Ping me an email I’d be happy to help.
