Canvas & Paper Prints
Gallery B.Fos offers artwork in a variety of formats to suit different sizes and budgets for our collectors. Canvas and paper prints are high-quality reproductions of original artwork, available in a range of sizes and printed on either canvas or paper.
What is a Mini Paper Print?
Mini Paper Prints are high-quality prints on satin-finished photo paper. Sizes vary, but they average 12" and include a half-inch white border on all sides of the image. Mini Paper Prints are not artist-signed and are not part of a limited edition.
What is a Large Paper Print?
Large Paper Prints are high-quality prints on stark-white, heavyweight archival paper. Each print is signed by the artist and numbered as part of a limited edition series of 100. Sizes vary, but they average 24" and include a 1-inch white border on all sides of the image. Extra-large Paper Prints are also available.
What is a Canvas Print?
Canvas Prints are high-quality giclée reproductions printed on stretched canvas. The canvas is stretched over 1.4-inch wooden stretcher bars and gallery wrapped for a polished finish. Sizes vary, and each print is signed by the artist and numbered as part of a limited edition series of 50. Canvas Prints are made to order at the time of purchase and arrive wired and ready for hanging. Processing time is 3–6 weeks before shipment or local pick-up.
What is an Embellished Canvas Print?
All Canvas Prints are eligible for hand embellishing for an additional fee. To add this option, select "Embellish Canvas" before adding the desired print to your cart. Using her palette knife, Becky Fos applies a high-gloss varnish to the canvas print, creating a texture that mimics the impasto of her original paintings. Processing time for embellished prints requires an additional 7 days.
Placing an Order
What size should I order?
We recommend that all collectors measure the available space before hanging artwork. A helpful tip is to use blue painter’s tape to outline the dimensions of the desired piece on your wall to see how it will fit within your space.
How do I decide between a paper print and a canvas print?
This choice comes down to personal preference. Paper prints will typically require framing, while canvas prints arrive ready to hang, though framing a canvas is optional if you prefer the look. Canvas prints are part of a more limited series of 50 reproductions, whereas large paper prints are part of a limited series of 100.
Can I cancel my order?
Unfortunately, orders are not eligible for cancelation.
