To all Edinburgh Painters, Illustrators, and Mixed-Media Artists!
At Have it Framed, your trusted partner for fine art printing and bespoke framing in the heart of Edinburgh, we're committed to helping your artwork shine. We're excited to introduce a specialised scanning service that captures the unique surface qualities of your original pieces like never before: the Widetek 25 scanner, featuring an innovative lighting system for enhanced textural detail.
We are incredibly proud to be the only studio in Edinburgh offering access to this advanced Widetek 25 scanning technology. This service is designed for artists who want to digitize their work with exceptional fidelity, especially when it comes to those subtle surface characteristics that make each piece unique.
What Makes Our Widetek 25 Scanning Special for Your Art?
This isn't about creating a full 3D model, but about capturing the feel and texture of your artwork with remarkable clarity. The Widetek 25 uses a sophisticated dual LED lighting system with special diffusers. This illuminates your artwork from precise angles, allowing our high-resolution scanner to pick up on:
Subtle Brushstroke Details: The direction and texture of your paint application.
The Unique Surface of Your Chosen Medium: Whether it's the fine grain of drawing paper, the weave of a canvas, or the slight relief in layered prints.
Enhanced Depth for Relatively Flat Textures: For artworks with interesting surface variations, like light impasto, collaged paper, or textured gesso, this scanner can bring out those details beautifully.
It's important to note that this technology works best for artworks where these textural details are closer to the scanner glass. While it excels at revealing the nuances of surface relief, the effect is most pronounced for less dimensional pieces. The best way to see how it can benefit your specific art is to see it in action!
Unlock New Possibilities for Your Art with High-Fidelity Scans:
A superior scan is the cornerstone of so much you can do with your art:
Create Exceptional Giclée Prints: Begin with a scan that truly understands your artwork's surface to produce fine art prints with incredible accuracy and depth, perfect for sale or exhibition.
Elevate Your Online Portfolio: Present your work online with images that convey a sense of its physicality. Allow viewers to appreciate the textural details that set your art apart.
Archive Your Work with Unparalleled Detail: Preserve a high-quality digital record of your creations, capturing their unique characteristics for the future.
Impress with Exhibition Submissions & Competitions: Provide high-resolution, beautifully detailed digital files that do your original artwork justice.
Broaden Your Reach: Offer limited edition prints or high-quality digital representations of your work, all stemming from a scan that respects its integrity.
