278 - The Best Way To Capture Your Artwork

As a follow-up to last week’s show, John reveals the very best way to capture your artwork in a digital format. 

It does not involve buying a big expensive camera with a hundred dials and options. Also, the solution is not to go to a Fine Art print shop either. 

 The very best option is to scan the artwork yourself with a scanner connected to your home computer. 

How do you go about doing this?

Here's what you'll need:

  1. A scanner - John recommends the Epson V600 (Amazon link: https://amzn.to/2HvW5u7)

  2. A computer

  3. Scanner software

  4. Photo editing software

In this episode, John discusses what he uses to create the digital image and the exact steps for creating the digital image if it's slightly larger than the bed of the scanner.
