DYE SUBLIMATION PRINTING ON METAL
When I first discovered Dye Sublimation Printing on Metal just three years ago, I was in total awe with how good a photograph presented itself via this medium. Better than any other medium I’ve observed in the past!
Instinctually I knew, this would be the new wave in which artists would want to present their work in the foreseeable future. These prints would be the catalyst and inspiration for creating this site.
How did I come to this conclusion so quickly? Just take a look for yourself.
The perfection of these prints are spectacular, which will be the primary medium in selling my work.
WHAT IS DYE SUBLIMATION PRINTING
Sublimation onto aluminum is a process of infusing dyes onto a sheet of pre-treated aluminum via heat transfer. Sublimation is the process of going from a solid to a gas, back to a solid – skipping the liquid state. Once the dyes submerge underneath the surface, the process is complete and permanent. Archival up to 65+ years tested by Wilhelm imaging research.
