Thank you for watching!! Since making this video I’ve learned more about public domain art and printing it. A key point I hadn’t realized at the time is that many files in the public domain are small and will result in poor quality prints when trying to print larger sizes. Etsy sellers often have tools to help them enhance the quality for better resolution when printing. There are definitely still some free gems out there with larger files sizes, so if you’re looking to go the free route there is some hope just know this is a potential issue you could run into. I hope you still received some valuable information from this video!
There’s a lot of artists who paint in that traditional realism style and some even offer printables. I actually offer a sliding scale to my collectors who have fallen on hard times. Talk to us artists we’re pretty reasonable ❤
You are being VERY kind to the Etsy sellers. They are not trying to help us, they’re just in it for the coin. 💵💰
Haha!! I meeean, I prefer free so I get you. 😆
You have a really warm, genuine presence. I love that you are not trying to be something you're not.
Great info/topic, and well presented. I dig it.
👌😊 -Best of luck on your art and your channel, and much support from one artist to another. -Huge 👍's up!
Thank you so much for the kind and encouraging words!! Seeing someone spread kindness is so refreshing, so thank you for that it goes further than you know!! ☺️
I am on a journey to create a gallery wall for my home and ive seen several videos but yours is the most informative. Thank you so much for all the wonderful information.
Oh, I’m so happy to hear it was helpful for you! Thank you for the kind words! 😊❤️
I just discovered your channel and I love it. I didn’t know about the public domain on pictures either. I even found a picture I have been looking for over 10 years. Win, win, win!
Aaahh, I love that so much! There are so many hidden gems on there! 👏❤️
I really can’t thank you enough for this video. This is like the 3-4 time I’ve rewatched!😊
This is so good to know!!! Totally going to order some artwork this week. Your prints are gorgeous!😍 also, love the background music! Ahh, your videos are the best!🤍
Awww, thank you sister!! Seriously blew my mind when I found out about public domain art! 🙌❤️
Your Halloween makeover is amazing! You have a special talent!
Hey, thank you!! 😊
Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge with us💕❤️
This info is truly valuable….so two thumbs up. 🤣. And your family photo…..omg. I love it what a sweet family you have. And 2 poms. Awwwww..🖤🖤🖤
Aww, thank you!!! Glad you got some value out of it! 😁
Printable art? More like “Perfect video that has tips to make you smart.” Thanks for sharing! 👍
Well I can't thank you enough for this information! I am trying to put together a gallery wall without spending a fortune but I want good quality prints. Thank you thank you thank you!
Girl! Thank you. Wish you did a thing where we could show you photos of our spaces and you could give us specific pointers.
I have the very same hydrangea art piece; got it on Etsy! I absolutely love it!
Nice video. In case you need high resolution big prints...
This is very informative. Well done. But just for the record it use to be framed were made to fit the art not the art to fit the frams
Thanks so much for the tips
What are your favorite search terms for the public domain site?
I keep it fairy simple with “landscape” or “portrait” usually adding time period or describing words such as “moody”. There are sooo many to sift through but some real gems! 😍
i was also trying to find an answer to that because when i looked i didnt have as great of results as the one shown in the video
@@menanq1995 Lots of trial and error for search terms. Another little tip is you can go to Etsy to find some you like and do an image search on Google to find the name/artist of the painting, then search for it on the public domain sites and you may find it on there for free!
Hi. I just watched your TH-cam video on printing digital vintage art. Great job explaining the process. I have used Finer works before but I don't know if I used the correct fine paper. I did choose giclee You mentioned two of your prints the landscape and the white floral with black background had a textured finish like brush strokes or like a canvas texture on the floral print. I am wondering what fine paper did you choose (the list has so many choices) with the giclee printing?
I know I am SUPER LATE. to the game here (I just subscribed to your channel a couple months ago) and stumble across this video, first and foremost thank you for sharing that info, secondly how do you download the artwork when you do find one you love....and how, or if you can tell what font size it is for printing sake? Thank you so much!
Love your style, it’s very similar to my own!
We’re did you find the Van Gogh portrait and is there a name of it to help me search? I would love to add this one to my home, I just have to find the file and have printed. Thanks for your recommendation, they were very helpful.
I wish you much luck as you move forward with your channel…I’m also have a YT channel…I know it’s a lot of work, but very rewarding. Best of luck with you as you grow, know you’ll do very well. I subscribed in a heart beat!
Aww, thank you so much for the kind and encouraging words, I really appreciate it!! 🥰
The portrait of Van Gogh was done by another artist by the name of John Peter Russell, I’m pretty sure you can find it that way! I had purchased mine from Etsy prior to knowing about the archives but I know this one is a public domain image! The only difference I’ve noticed is I think some Etsy sellers do a little color grading to them, as an artist I’m sure you could modify it to your liking!! Hope that helps! ❤️
Hello! Thanks you for this amazing video..I’ve been searching for a while we’re to find vintage prints.. I was just curious..what kind of key words you put in the search bar? I’m having a hard time finding the vintage images..thanks !!
Glad it’s helpful!! I’ve had the best luck with “oil painting” “oil painting landscapes” or “19th century” things like that. Definitely takes some trial and error.
Just came across your channel. New subscriber here! Can you share the Etsy link to the landscape print you showed first? Thank you!
Glad to have you Margie! Here’s the link for the landscape print. 😊

Oh my goodness! I just bought some prints from etsy and I'm trying to figure out the best way to print them. I really want mine to look painted. What paper did you choose from finer works? Thank you for your video. I'm a new subscriber!
Hello, what were your options you chose for the hydrangea on finerworks? Paper type, etc? Im trying to print this same photo. Thank you.
Hi there! I did a Giclee Print on Fine Art Paper for the Hydrangea print! ☺️
Do you make your prints on a board type of material of just photo printing paper? Thank you
@KrystaMeeker please who is author of that white flower paintingto try to find it? Thank you!
what kind of paper did you print those out on? thank you
On mpix it gives several options for the giclee printing. Did you use deep matte, fine art, semi gloss, or high gloss?
I always use Fine Art Paper. ☺️
@@KrystaMeeker awesome! This video gave me the push I needed to finish up my half put together gallery walls
Great video! Public domain sites are not all created equal, some of them are easier to use than others. Can you share some links to public domain sites that you use?
About how much do the prints run
Hi Rachel, they range depending on the size and type of paper you print on. An 8x10 is typically around $5 on a Giclee print from MPIX. The large one I show in the video of Van Gogh cost around $40ish I want to say but I also used a discount code towards it. You could also get large images printed on vinyl signs and frame them, I’ve seen others do that and it looks great and can be cost effective for large prints. Hope that helps! ☺️
Do you just save the file of painting you like on your phone from the public domain and send it to printing company? Will the resolution be good?
One thing you have not mentioned is that those digital artwork offered in public domain site do not specify the actual size of the print with available resolution. I did have experience downloading a file that doesn't have sufficient resolution to fit the size of the frame. Hope you can give more advice about that. Thanks 😊
You’re totally right! It’s funny you mention it because I discuss this in the video I have coming out tomorrow! I hadn’t run into issue with it at the time of this video. I will say, there isn’t really a solve unless you invest in a program that can enhance the quality so that you can enlarge. That is another benefit to buying from Etsy, they do that for you! ☺️
@@KrystaMeeker Thanks for your reply. Look forward to your new video.
