Why we punched a hole in the wall
Our fledgling photo center had outgrown its cave in the back of the store.After maximizing every inch, our associates were bumping into each other and the giclee printer, which is a recipe for disaster when handling glass and priceless original artwork. Fortunately, no such disaster came to pass, but its specter hanging over necessitated a change.
We're ecstatic to announce the expansion of our rapidly growing photo center into the space between our custom framing showroom and Catch 22. (The glorious smells from the kitchen has not helped our diets.) This expansion has more space for a bigger giclee printer, curing racks for our archival prints, expanding our quick and easy photo kiosk, and completely new photo services, soon to come:The expansion adds;
- Prints on Metal and Acrylic
- Giclee prints up to 44”
- New papers and canvas for giclee printing
- Photo books and buttons
- Greeting Cards
- Product Photography
- Fast and easy photo gallery frames
- Ready to hang gallery wrapped and framed prints
In addition to expanding our photo services, we've also;
Expanded our custom frame selections and added an exciting new line of frames from Bella - Bella provides unique wood frames produced by the finest manufacturers in Europe, the US and Asia.The frames range from beautifully stained hardwoods, intricate patterned marquetry, all wood veneers and elegant water-gilded mouldings.
