An invaluable reference, this book provides insights, suggestions, examples, and resources intended to demystify the arcane world of art print marketing. Barney Davey has authored this handbook of practical advice to help visual artists succeed in the print market. The book is a result of his experiences and perspective culled from advising and observing leading art publishers and print artists in three decades. It details how artists can use the print market to take control of their career and create a profitable business putting their original work into prints. The wealth of benefits for visual artists in the print market include: secondary income from reproducing originals into prints; third stream income from licensing; greater awareness for their work; growing their collector base; diversifying their pricing and portfolio and keeping pace with demand for their originals. Given these advantages, it is surprising to find other business and marketing books for artists offer scant coverage of the print market. The paucity of print market information makes the book's insider insights priceless. Any visual artist with the desire to enjoy commercial success will find this book useful, inspiring and informative.

Today's digital cameras continue to produce increasingly higher definition image data files, making high resolution, large-format output possible. As printing technology moves forward at an equally fast pace, the new inkjet printers are capable of printing with great precision at a very fine resolution, providing an amazing tonal range and significantly superior image permanence at a more affordable price. In the hands of knowledgeable photographers, these printers are able to produce prints that are comparable to the highest quality darkroom prints on fine art paper. The third edition of this best-selling book provides the necessary foundation for successful fine art printing: the understanding of color management, profiling, paper, and inks. It offers advice on selecting an appropriate printer for long-lasting fine art prints, demonstrates how to set up the printing workflow and select a suitable paper for your subject, and guides you step-by-step through the process of converting an image file to an outstanding fine art print. This new edition covers the most recent lines of high-end inkjet printers, photo papers, and devices for monitor and printer profiling. It also addresses the printing dialogs and some new features of Photoshop CS6.
