CINCINNATI'S FINE ART PRINTER
Clayton Color is an inkjet print studio in Cincinnati, Ohio specializing in fine art printing on archival canvas and paper.
Services include high-resolution artwork capture (scan or photo capture), color-accurate printing, and digital file prep (Photoshop, layout, and custom edits).
Products include gallery-quality stretched canvas, fine art paper prints, and high-quality posters made with premium materials and professional-grade equipment.
SCANNING SERVICES
Artwork capture is handled with a Hasselblad X2D II 100C medium-format system using a high-resolution multi-shot process to produce files with higher color accuracy, finer detail, cleaner texture reproduction, and stronger tonal separation than standard scanning methods.
My process is built around controlled lighting, tethered review, and critical focus allowing the file to hold up for enlargement and reprints. That means a more accurate master file with better fidelity to your original artwork.
