Prints Now Available Through FineArtAmerica

by

    A large percentage of my work is now available through my FineArtAmerica website at http://paul-velgos.artistwebsites.com/

    FineArtAmerica is one of the largest and most popular art print websites in the world. They offer an extensive selection of print options including some of the largest print sizes available such as 48″ x 72″. They offer metal prints, acrylic prints, canvas prints, framed prints, and standard prints.

    While a lot of my prints are used as wall art in homes, a growing number of larger canvas prints are being used commercially for business offices in the Chicago area and also nationally. My popular Chicago photography is available through their Chicago Art category and looks great on a home or office wall.

    If you need any kind of prints I would highly recommend giving FineArtAmerica a try.

     

      New Chicago Black and White Photos Collection

        Chicago Icons in Black and White

        The photos in the Chicago Black and White collection include some of Chicago’s most popular and iconic attractions. Black and white can totally change the character of a photo. So I’ve transformed photos of the Chicago skyline, skyscrapers, Wrigley Field, Union Station, Chicago Theatre, Buckingham Fountain, The Bean Cloud Gate, Sears Tower / Willis Tower, Field Museum, Picasso Sculpture and more.

        The editing in this collection has been applied consistently across all photos in the series. These photos would be useful for a project such as prints for decorating an office.

        Currently there are about 50 photos in the collection and I’ll add more soon.

                  New Chicago Prints and Stock Photos

                  by

                    I’ve created a new series of toned Chicago photos that are available for sale to buy as prints at my Photoshelter website and license as stock photos at Istockphoto. The toning includes variations in blue, cream, aqua, black and white, and HDR. I’ve been working at including more detail on my Chicago photos such as building names, building addresses, bridge names, and streets. This new series was mainly created from shoots I did in late 2011 and early 2012. Here are some examples:
