Hello all, I'm excited this month to welcome you to my new online fine-art print store.
If you've read my previous blog post "Introducing Other Ideas" then you'll know that Other Ideas was born out of my love for photography.
Because I'm so passionate about taking pictures, I knew from the start how important it is to include a place on the website where people could take away a piece of photographic art for themselves, who weren't necessarily wanting an item of clothing.
The Other Ideas fine-art photo print store is a collection of images captured by myself, including all the images used for the clothing collections and extending to more photography that's available exclusively in fine-art print only.
I wanted to make sure each print is something I would hang on the wall myself, and being a particular fan of black and white imagery I knew one of the most important factors would be making sure the black areas are super dense.
After doing some research and testing in a light booth using four of my favourite images from my skateboarding collection, Air, Electric, Ollie Flip and Fall - I chose to use Hahnemühle Photo Rag®.
The white cotton paper boasts a lightly defined felt structure, lending each artwork a three dimensional appearance and impressive pictorial depth. This paper produces an outstanding print quality that feature brilliant colours and deep blacks that is only deepened once placed under glass.
I'm thrilled with the results and I do hope you enjoy browsing the gallery as much as I enjoyed creating it.
If you have any questions that you'd like to ask please feel free to message me (and follow!) through Instagram _other_ideas_ or via email at hello@otherideas.co.uk
