Color Correction of David Uhl's "Georgia Peach"

An important step in giclée printing is the capturing of a digital image and color correcting. After scanning the Artist's original, Van Gogh Again goes through the process of color correction. Color correction is needed to ensure the giclée print turns out like the original painting.

Scanning a Collage for a Boulder Family

Boulder Collage Scan by Van Gogh Again

Van Gogh Again recently scanned and color corrected a photo collage of a graduating high school student for a Boulder family. While most of Van Gogh Again's clients are artists, photographers, publishers and other businesses in need of scanning and printing services, we still work with people outside of the business and art world.

In this case, the client was a mom who had made a collage of her son's high school experience out of pictures taken over the last 4 years. Most of our non-business related projects have been for families who have old family photos they want to scan. Sometimes they even have a digital files, but they want to print onto canvas for a more exciting look.

On this particular project, I started thinking once again about this advantages of using a large format scanner like the one we have at Van Gogh Again. Normally I would brag about the size and quality of the scanner, but in this case, a flat-bed scanner was simply the safest choice.

When it comes to scanning a collage or any mixed media piece, you run the danger of ripping of the components during the scanning process. Sheet-feed scanners and drum scanners are not options for these kinds of projects. The beauty of a large-format flat bed scanner is that you simply lay the piece down onto the scanner and press go. All of the moving parts of the scanner are on the other side of the glass.

Scan Your Artwork Before the Summer Shows

Van Gogh Again scans original artwork for a number of professional artists who spend a good portion of their summers at the summer shows promoting their art. Now that spring is here it's just a few months before they'll be heading out to the shows.

Be sure to have your original artwork scanned and color corrected before it's too late. Most of us know how difficult it can be to get a piece back from the collector for scanning once it's sold.

Denver Scanning - Step 1 in Fine Art Reproduction

"Risk" by Sophy Brown - Scanned at 70 x 43

Scanning or the image capture process is the first step in the fine art reproduction process. Some artists hire digital photographers in order to produce a digital image for reproduction. While this may work in some instances, it's not ideal. High quality large-format scanning is the optimal choice for fine art printing. The accuracy you receive from the one-to-one technology of a flatbed scanner is unmatched.

Of course simply using a scanner is not enough. Like most technology, some scanners are better than other scanners, and some scanning companies produce better results than other scanning companies. It's important at this stage of the fine art reproduction process not to slack. Even the best printers out there may not be able to work with a poor image capture. You may never have an opportunity to scan your original artwork again. That's why it's so important to get done right the first time.

Van Gogh Again is Denver's best scanning company. That's why Colorado artists choose Van Gogh Again. Contact Van Gogh Again for more information about their scanning and Giclée printing services.
