Open edition prints are representations of my art that I will make available without any limitations. They come in several sizes and, because there is no limit to the number or reproductions that can be made, an open edition print is priced substantially lower than a limited edition print.
Not particularly, because these prints may potentially circulate in large numbers. There will likely always be one available on the market for purchase. An open edition print's primary function is to make artwork accessible at a fraction of the cost of the original work of art. Open editions are meant to enhance your interior, add a touch of style to your space, or simply reflect your taste in art.
Limited edition prints are either original works (meaning they were created exclusively in a specific print medium by the artist) or are limited production runs of already existing artwork produced in collaboration with the artist. These prints are usually created in "Editions" and are often signed and numbered by the artist. Limited edition prints are usually exceptional in quality, and far superior to "Open Edition" prints. Limited edition prints are printed on museum grade archival paper (100% acid free, cotton rag) and are meticulously printed with the highest quality inks to show the original work of art with all inherent detail.
Absolutely. The exclusive nature of a limited edition print effectively raises its value and, therefore, its price. Although there are many factors to consider (i.e. artist's notoriety, historical value, edition size, signed or unsigned, demand and popularity of the specific work of art being reproduced, etc.), because they are limited to a certain number and can never be duplicated again in the same capacity. They are often prized and sought after by collectors and art lovers alike.
Every limited edition print will be delivered with a Certificate of Authenticity. This certificate documents the size of the edition, the archival materials used, print number, authentication date, title, and artist. Certificates are signed by the artist, Wu Lan-Chiann, to ensure their authenticity.

While looking though the site you may notice that there is a security assurance icon in the footer yet the information in your browser URL bar may state differently. This is because the main site is not collecting any of your information. However, once you get to into the CART SYSTEM where you are required to input your details you will notice the cart is secure and the icon in your URL bar will then be a lock representing a secure page.
The Live Preview Tool (augmented reality) on our website allows you to use your phone or tablet to see how Wu Lan-Chiann's art will look on your walls. There's no app to install. You will need to use a mobile device with a current browser. Pull up our website on your mobile device and navigate to the image that you are interested in previewing and click on the " Live Preview" button. Our website will launch your camera from within your internet browser and superimpose the artwork onto whatever you have your phone pointed at. It is best to stand 10-12 feet from where you want to see the art mounted, and face it straight on. You can change the artwork's position by moving the phone and you can choose sizes with the pull down menu at the bottom of the screen. The ability to launch a camera right from the browser is currently supported by the latest version of Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, and Opera in their Android versions. If you have an Apple device, you must use Apple's Safari browser, version 11 or higher.
Art Prints:
No, the prints are not framed, but we offer several options:
1. You can order just the print and mount and frame it yourself.
2. You can order the print with Gatorfoam backing to make framing easier.
3. If you choose the option of Gatorfoam with mounting blocks, your print will arrive ready to hang. There will be two Gatorfoam blocks mounted to the back for hanging the print and make it protrude about a half inch off your wall.
4. If you choose the option of framed print, you can choose your favorite frame with or without a mat. The framed print will be directly shipped to your home.
Limited Edition Prints:
Limited edition prints arrive ready to be matted and framed.
