—New Member Eric Soller is offering giclee printing services. From Eric:
"I have a 24" Epson Stylus Pro 7900 Printer which produces beautiful Giclee prints using 11 Ultrachrome High Density inks.
I can provide printing for League members at really reasonable prices. Giclee printing costs could vary slightly based on the stock chosen to print on, whether it's Enhanced Matte, Ultrasmooth Fine Art Paper, or canvas. But as a guide you can figure something like $4.50-$6.00 per sq. foot of output. My printer can print up to 24" wide by as long as desired. If anyone's interested, I can show samples of the quality.
I share the printer with a photographer in Fort Mill, who is available to photograph artwork, digitize artwork for printing, and make custom frames.
If anyone is interested in these other services, I can talk to him and get pricing for any member.
Thank you! Please let me know if you have any questions."
