How it works

Original Artwork

Original artwork, hand-painted ink on paper. Created and executed at my studio in the city of Porto, Portugal. Numbered and signed. I ship from Portugal.

Ecocaps: A sustainable packaging solution to plastic end caps

My posters are shipped and packaged in Ecocaps tubes. The world's first sustainable, plastic-free packaging solution to replace disposable caps. Developed with 100% recycled paper products, including a unique blend of newspaper, cardboard and cellulose,Ecocaps are fully compostable, biodegradable and recyclable, eliminating the need for traditional plastic caps.

How your art is made and packaged

Once the ink is perfectly dry, your print is carefully laid flat and layered with a sheet of protective, acid-free tissue paper. This prevents the ink from rubbing, scratching, or transferring onto itself during transit. Instead of being folded or shoved into an envelope, your print is gently and loosely rolled. Rolling the paper loosely protects the delicate paper fibers and prevents permanent creasing or aggressive curling, making it much easier for you to flatten and frame when it arrives.

Make the choice of fine art paper for your print

I have a range of substrate types to choose from, so it's no surprise that one of the most frequent questions from my clients is "which paper should I choose?" Of course, when choosing the right paper, personal preference is key. It entirely depends on the look and texture you'd like your poster to have. But in this post, I want to help you understand the important properties for choosing the ideal paper for your poster.
