Inside the atelier: how an open-edition canvas is made

Inside the atelier: how an open-edition canvas is made

Every NeoWallArt work begins as a museum file. We start with the highest-resolution image available, check the colour against the institution's own record, and then make a small number of adjustments for the way pigment sits on canvas rather than paper.

Choosing the surface

We print on 320 gsm heavyweight cotton canvas. It has enough texture to catch the light like a painted surface, but not so much that it distracts from fine detail. The ink is archival pigment, chosen for depth in the darks and a soft, matte finish.

Framing by hand

Our frames are made to order from FSC-certified wood. Each canvas is stretched, checked and packed by hand. We keep the profile slim so the painting, not the frame, does the talking.

Made to order

Nothing is printed until it is ordered. That keeps waste low and means we can offer six sizes for every work. The trade-off is a short wait: most canvases leave the studio within three to five working days.
