PHOTO COMPOSITE PROJECTS

Maybe you think that the customers at Archival Arts are strictly  fine art painters and draftsmen but that is not entirely true. While we adore our distinctive group of artists, we also work on personal and fun projects such as photo composites. These range from basic background changes like the one below where we added a more interesting sky - to more lighthearted ideas such as restoring old family snapshots that have faded with time. So if you have a drawer with some faded or funny photos that you want to enhance or change or even add a person who was not in the original photo, give us a call and see what our creative staff can do. We are always ready to listen. 410-247-7771.

From time to time we enjoy promoting the art openings of our artists.  Darren Guest whose work appears quite frequently on our scanning bed has a show at the end of this month.  Darren is a more rare kind of artist and here's what he has to say on the back of his announcement. "My Name is Darren Guest and I am a visual artist from Baltimore, MD.  I was born with Muscular Dystrophy, a disease that weakens muscles throughout the human body.  I've been in a motorized wheelchair since the age of six. Despite my physical disability, art has always been my passion.  With it I'm able to create and express my inner thoughts and visions and turn them into works of art.

New Art Marketplace in the Works

PLEASE SHARE THIS BLOG POST WITH OTHER ARTISTS!!!      Well it is almost a year after the pandemic hit and we are finally making the online gallery a reality! For many years, I tried and tried to come up with new products and services like printing on fabric, making greeting cards and designing books, but honestly these services were all very costly in both time and money and didn't profit enough to make them worthwhile. Just a few months ago, I finally realized that it wasn't new products we needed, I just needed to re-focus on the reason we are in business - to help artists sell their art and educate the world about our process.
