Art for Art sake.

Last year at the Yea Autumn festival I displayed a range of my fractal art works.

Now it went over really well, everyone seemed to like it and I got the usual “oh you’re clever”
Now this year I didn’t show anything as I haven’t made any more up, but I was thinking about getting a few of the Bryce works printed up to show them off really well.

I was tossing up between just getting them professionally printed or having them done on canvas, so they looked like a real painting and not just a digital picture.

Harvey Norman does this kind of printing, as well as Rabbit Photo’s, but it’s very expensive so I thought about looking around at some of the on-line stores, to see if maybe they where a bit cheaper.
Deviant Art was one place I was thinking of getting it printed through, but they manage to take a cut of the profits, so that was out of the question, another place I found Photo Fun offered a whole range of items from Photo Albums to these funky Photo Cards.

They also do Canvas printing as well, and by the looks of things they are a whole lot cheaper and the postage is pretty fantastic too.

I like the idea that you can also share your photo’s on-line, other then just getting things printed so that people can have a look at your photo’s or you can show your friends before sticking them in a Photo Book and sending them a copy.

I know I’m really interested in getting some printing done, and after wandering around this site for a bit, I found it was easy to understand and the help section was very helpful about more then just what they offered, and I like the clearness of the postage and price range for each different item.

The only problem I have now is deciding which of my pictures I want to get printed and also if I want to also do them as cards, as I think some might look great as gifts in that design.
