Digital Scanning
All artwork in the Dagara Collection is sourced from original paintings created by our featured Dagara artist Mr. Traore Oumarou, primarily acrylic paint on lightweight canvas and other natural fiber textiles. Original canvases vary in size and proportions and some are irregular in shape when compared to standard rectangular western artwork layout templates.
The highest quality fine art digital scanning technology was utilized to digitize the artwork into high resolution images, all artwork was scanned professionally by a leading fine art graphics and printing studio in Oakland, California, USA. Where possible, digital scanning captured the natural edge of the canvas, and professional background removal processing was utilized to represent the most authentic edge-to-edge artwork image possible.
Poster Layout
Poster layouts include minimal margins with artwork centered on page, preserving the entire canvas image to the extent possible. Poster sizes are based on the best-fit standard paper sizes available.
Fine Art Print Layout
Fine Art Print layouts include minimum margins of approximately 15mm to allow for matting options. The wider margins are split equally on both sides of the artwork. Where artwork is irregularly shaped, margins may vary along the length and width, but will generally follow the layout specifications provided here.
All artwork is printed on demand, and shipped direct from printer. No frame or matte is included, or offered from The Spark Gallery by From The Ashes.
