What are your art prints printed on?

We use a thick 310gsm lustre finished paper, which gives a nice middle ground balance between matt and gloss, with a slight texture to it. 

 
How do you print your art?

Our prints are made using high-end Canon professional photography printers. These use pigment-based inks, means prevent the finished prints from fading or yellowing for decades (up to 200 years, according to Canon, when placed behind UV resistant glazing).  

Do you make the prints yourself?

Yes, we produce all of our prints (up to A2 size) in our design studio. This enables us to guarantee a high standard of quality in terms of the printing and the packaging, ensuring that we have as many happy customers as possible.

Our large format prints such as A1 size prints, are printed by our trusty production partners at Stourport Photo Centre, using the same materials and ink type. They are a family run business who we have worked with for years, and know that they share the same quality of care levels that we do.

Stourport Photo Centre also print our homeware products (mugs, coasters, keyring and Christmas baubles).

I have had a look on your website, but couldn't find an illustration for the team/stadium I was looking for.

Please send us a message. It might be the case that we do have the product listed on the website and we can send you the link to the product page. Alternatively we have many designs in our back catalogue that aren't listed on here, and if that is the case then we can make this available to you straight away. 

If you don't have the product I am looking for, can you make it for me?

Absolutely! We have been making bespoke designs for customers since we formed in 2016. Simply send us a message and we can discuss your requirements further. Commissions can start at £30, depending on the complexity of what is being illustrated.

It doesn't even have to be football or sport related, as you can see from our commissions page on the website. Ben at Turf Football Art has created many contemporary types of illustrations in the past from Pet Portraits to Wedding Venue prints. 

Does Turf Football Art offer personalised products?

Most of our products allow you to personalise the text on them. So if you would like something other than the default text as shown on the product listing, you can get creative and put something that is meaningful to you instead.

What size prints do you offer?

All of our prints come in a range of sizes to suit all budgets, and to fit all spaces for where the artwork may be intended to be displayed. You can view all of these size options on the drop down box on each of the print product pages. All available sizes are suited to commonly available frame sizes, making it easy for you to find a frame for your print. If you require a size that is not listed as a standard size, then please get in touch and we should be able to make this for you for a comparative price. 

How do you make your illustrations?

All of our illustrations are created using digital illustration software, from a completely blank canvas. They are created bit by bit, layer on layer by Ben, our real human illustrator. Decisions on every single colour is made, and illustrations are refined at the end to ensure that the printed colours give the desired effects.

There is no computer trickery or AI cheating involved by converting photographs into graphics as you may find to be the case with other similar products. Turf is proud to be a creator of all illustrations within our very own developed style.

Can I buy the digital file of the work and print this myself?

Unfortunately not. As a means of protecting the business, we recognise that our illustrations are our assets.

In addition to this, we want customers to have the best version of our illustrations. You simply cannot get the same quality result by printing the designs off using an everyday printer at home. The print is likely to fade and yellow very quickly, and the colour profiling set-up will not give as good results.

Does Turf Football Art offer gift wrapping as an option?

We don't currently offer gift wrapping, however all of our prints are packaged using strong packaging materials, such as envelope stiffeners, to prevent any damage in transit.Will my framed print break in the post?We have selected a high-quality 100% wooden frame product, which contains a plastic styrene glazing to ensure that there is minimal risk of any breakages in the post. We want all of our orders to arrive unharmed, and also don't want any of our customers to risk emptying a package full of broken glass. The styrene gives the same visual effect as glass, but is much safer, as well as being lighter too meaning that the postage costs are cheaper and we can offer the product for a lower price. 

Does Turf Football Art sell wholesale to other businesses?

Yes we do. We have many partnerships supplying our products to independent gift shops and picture frame shops all around the UK. If you would like to purchase in bulk from us, then please send a message and we can discuss your requirements.

 

Does Turf Football Art have an EU based GPSR representative?

Yes we do. Turf Football Art has an EU based GPSR representative, as part of our effort to comply with all necessary product safety regulations when selling to customers based within the EU and Northern Ireland.
