What’s an Artist Proof?

Often we have this conversation with our customers in the gallery, the simple answer is NOTHING! In the olden days before digital printing was around often the first batch off the drum printer needed colour corrections, this would make them unique due to the errors and deemed to be more collectable. However, flash forward to the new digital age of printing and there really isn’t any difference, it’s just a number right?? Well, sort of again, nowadays they still highly sort after as they are more often than not a low production number, either 5 or 10. Some artists charge a premium for these as well and some also offer additional embellishing of the print or frame.
