1. Match the Media to Your Artwork
-
Photography: Go for smooth or satin finishes like Vibrance Luster for sharp detail and vivid colour.
-
Watercolour/Digital Illustration: Choose textured papers such as Pura Textured to mimic traditional media.
-
Paintings (Reproductions): Use canvas like Lyve or Crystalline Gloss for a more authentic look and feel.
2. Consider the Finish
-
Matte: Soft and non-reflective – ideal for subtle tones.
-
Satin: Balanced finish with good depth and colour.
-
Gloss: High impact and vibrant – best for bold visuals.
3. Canvas vs. Paper
-
Canvas is perfect for stretched or gallery-wrapped displays.
-
Paper suits framed work, especially with fine detail.
4. Go Archival
Always choose acid-free, OBA-free, museum-grade media to ensure your prints stand the test of time. All Breathing Color products meet or exceed archival standards.
