Services for artists · North Scottsdale
Framing, printing and production help for working artists.
Artists come to us for show framing, repeatable print-and-frame packages and one-of-a-kind originals.
What kind of project is it?
The framing should fit the way you plan to show or sell the work.
A gallery show, ongoing print sales and a one-of-a-kind original are different jobs. We match the framing plan to how the work will be shown and sold.
Professional presentation without overspending
Bring the work, gallery requirements, quantity and deadline. We’ll build a clean, consistent framing plan with the selling price in mind.
Set the package once, then repeat it
Approve the print, mat, frame, glazing and fitting once; later orders can follow the same saved specification.
Premium framing for originals
For originals that need more, the full Old Town Frame Library, conservation framing and specialty work are available.
Need only part of the job?
We cut mats, replace glazing, fit finished work, stretch canvas and work with frames you already have when the project allows it.
Shows, galleries and deadlines
Bring the show date when we first sit down.
Tell us the quantity, show date and how the work will be sold. We’ll plan timing, consistency and cost together; ask about artist pricing.
Bring the requirements and deadline
Bring any gallery rules for framing, glazing, wiring or finished dimensions. We build the schedule backward from the deadline.
Keep the presentation consistent
A show can share a frame family, mat proportion or finish without putting the same frame on every piece.
Choose a level that makes financial sense
We match the level of framing to the artwork and selling price.
Ongoing print sales and editions
Set the print and framing once. Then repeat it.
For work sold over time, we save the approved print and framing details so reorders stay consistent.
Approved print-and-frame package
Paper or canvas, finished size, frame, mat or float details, glazing and fitting stay together in one specification.
Repeat orders
Later pieces can follow the saved specification instead of starting over.
Material changes
If a material is discontinued, we compare replacements with the approved piece.
Fulfillment and shipping
Craft Giclée supports ongoing print production and drop shipping. We coordinate framing and any outside shipping the finished product needs.
Craft Giclée + Image & Frame
Need prints as well as framing?
At North Scottsdale, the original, proof, finished print and frame can be reviewed in one place. Craft Giclée handles capture and printing; Image & Frame handles framing.
Professional artwork capture
Bring the original to North Scottsdale when you need professional artwork capture.
Proof before production
Proof the color and surface on the actual paper or canvas before committing to an edition.
Fine-art paper and canvas
Craft Giclée prints on a broad range of professional fine-art papers and canvases.
Design around the finished print
Once the print is physical, we judge margins, mat color, frame finish and scale together.
North Scottsdale for artists
North Scottsdale makes artist framing and printing easy to coordinate.
Walk-ins are welcome. For shows, editions or several pieces, an appointment gives us dedicated design time.
North has a strong framing selection and direct access to Craft Giclée. Old Town is available when a project needs the full Frame Library or more specialized conservation work.
Bring the artwork, the show date or the print plan.
We’ll build the framing and production plan around how you sell and show the work.
