ARTIST PRINTS

Thanks for visiting this page!
Below, you’ll find a full breakdown of Chris Summer Artist Prints—including what makes them unique and the process behind their creation. You’ll also find a section with framing suggestions to help you present your print beautifully once it’s yours.

It’s a comprehensive guide, but if you have any further questions, we’d love to hear from you.

WHY?

Chris Summer Artist Prints are created for those who connect with the emotion and precision of hyperrealism. Each print carries the same attention to detail and sensitivity to light that defines Chris’s original works, offering art lovers a way to bring that depth and presence into their own homes.

Prints ensure the artwork can be lived with and enjoyed by more people, beyond the originals, and provide a way to build a considered display of Chris’s work over time. This range also makes a thoughtful gift, allowing someone to share a piece of art that holds personal meaning.

HOW?

Each print begins it's journey with a finished painting, varnished, and captured in ultra high resolution, preserving not only the fine details and subtle tones, but also the emotion and atmosphere of the original, so that its presence can be carried forward into each print. This image is then precisely checked to faithfully match the original painting, so that what you see on paper reflects the true depth and presence of the original artwork.

Once purchased, a print is printed off fresh to order as a museum-quality giclée print. Using archival inks on 100% cotton rag paper or premium archival canvas, the result is a print with exceptional clarity, longevity, and richness of colour. A giclée is widely regarded as the gold standard of fine art reproduction, offering a print that is remarkably close in appearance to the original.

Finally, prints are hand-signed in the studio by Chris Summer before being carefully packaged and shipped. From the moment it arrives, the print carries the presence of this Art — ready to be lived with, cherished, and celebrated in your home.

FRAMING

Choosing the right frame is an important step in how your Chris Summer print will be experienced in your space. The right framing can complement the artwork’s detail, light, and presence, allowing it to become a striking feature in your home while protecting it for years to come.

PRINTS ON PAPER

Here are some visual examples of how some of these prints have been framed.

Remember to ask your framer about the selection of glass available, including low reflection options.

If you would like to display the hand-written details on the border of your print, then we suggest framing with a white matt, as it will go well with the visible white border.

TOP TIP - When deciding the width of your mat, make it different to the width of the frame.
