What it is

Professional artwork scanning, built for paintings.

Artwork scanning is high-resolution photography of your original, done on a copy stand with controlled light and a color reference chart. It's the same idea as a flatbed scanner, built for canvases, textured paint and pieces too big for a scanner bed.

You get files that match your piece closely enough to make giclée prints from, add to a portfolio, submit to a gallery or sell online.

Why it matters

Your art deserves better than a phone photo.

You spent weeks on that painting. Then you photographed it on your phone, and the blues went gray, the varnish threw glare across the middle, and the edges leaned in.

Now that file is everywhere: your website, your prints, your show applications. Paintings fight cameras. Oil and varnish reflect, big canvases fall off in brightness toward the edges, and every screen disagrees about what "that blue" is. We fix that once, at the source, so every print and listing after it looks like the piece you made.

Common questions

Artwork scanning FAQs

How much does artwork scanning cost in Orlando?

Most pieces are $50 to scan. Very large pieces may cost more, and we'll confirm the price before we start. Use the estimator above to price scans and giclée prints together.

How large a piece can you scan?

If it's going on display at an art festival, in a museum or in a home, we can almost certainly scan it. For larger sizes, let's chat first. Most likely the answer is yes, but we want to be extra sure.

How big can I print from my scan?

Every piece is captured on a 33-megapixel full-frame camera. After we crop to the edges of your artwork, that's enough for sharp giclée prints up to about 20 x 30 inches viewed up close. Our larger sizes, up to 40 x 60, still look great from normal viewing distance, and we'll tell you if a size is pushing it.

What is a giclée print?

A giclée is a fine art print made on a professional inkjet printer with archival pigment inks on fine art paper. It holds detail and color far better than a standard photo print and is made to last. Our giclée prints are produced by a professional fine art print lab.

How much is shipping on prints?

Prints ship straight to your door for a flat $20 shipping and handling per order, no matter how many prints or what size. Orders with $150 or more in prints ship free.

Do I have to bring my art to you?

You can drop it off or ship it to us. We'll send drop-off details when you book. For shipping, you coordinate round trip shipping. If you need a hand, we have a courier service we can use.

What files do I get?

TIFF for printing and archiving, plus JPG and PNG for your website, social media and online shops. Files are delivered through a private download link.

Will the colors match my original?

Every time we start a custom scanning session, we run a calibration process with a color reference chart. We aim to get the color as close to the original as the process allows.

Who owns the files?

You do. Your artwork and its copyright stay yours. We never sell, share or post your files without your permission.

How long does it take?

About one week. That can change with the season and our current queue, and we'll give you a date up front.

Can you scan glossy or heavily varnished oil paintings?

Yes. We position the light to avoid glare and correct any remaining unevenness afterward.

Can you scan my kids' artwork or old family paintings?

Absolutely. Drawings, watercolors, framed heirlooms and whole boxes of school art all work. Send us a quick count and we'll quote it as a batch.

Ready to start?

Your art is finished. Let's make sure everyone sees it the way you meant it.

Send us the basics and we'll reply within one business day with your quote.
