Print care guide
Handle with Care
Always handle prints by their edges whenever possible.
Avoid touching the printed surface directly as oils and moisture from hands may affect the finish over time.
Framing Recommendations
For the best presentation and longevity:
Use professional framing services.
Choose archival-quality mounting materials.
Consider UV-protective glass where possible.
Ensure prints are mounted in acid-free materials.
Professional framing helps protect your artwork from dust, moisture, and environmental damage.
Keep Away from Heat Sources
Do not display prints directly above:
Fireplaces
Heaters
Air-conditioning outlets
Extreme temperature fluctuations may affect paper and framing components.
Cleaning Your Artwork
When cleaning framed artwork:
Dust gently using a soft, dry microfiber cloth.
Never use abrasive cleaners.
Do not spray liquids directly onto the artwork or frame.
For unframed prints, consult a professional framer before attempting any cleaning.
Storage
If prints are not being displayed:
Store flat where possible.
Keep in a cool, dry environment.
Avoid folding, rolling, or placing heavy objects on top of the artwork.
Use protective archival sleeves where available.
Avoid Direct Sunlight
Long-term exposure to direct sunlight may cause fading over time.
For best results:
Display prints away from direct sunlight.
Use UV-protective glazing where appropriate.
Rotate artwork periodically if displayed in bright areas.
Protect from Humidity
Avoid displaying prints in environments with excessive moisture such as:
Bathrooms
Steam rooms
Poorly ventilated kitchens
High humidity can affect both the print and framing materials.
