Most of my images are in an aspect ratio of 3:2. That means they’ll naturally print to sizes like 6x4, 9x6, 12x8, 15x10, 18x12, and so on up to 30x20 inches. You’re welcome to adjust and crop the images to meet a different aspect print size (e.g. cropping off a portion of my ‘small’ 9x6 image to create an 8x6 or A5 print). All images are set to the industry-standard resolution of 300 PPI for the highest quality prints.
I tend to compare things to A2/A3/A4/A5 paper sizes, since most are familiar with those for comparison. But I also provide things in cm for the metric translations!
To help you choose an option for your needs, here’s the key facts and examples of what you can do with each of the size offerings I provide:
SMALL
'Small' is ideal for any online/website purposes, use in video projects (up to Full HD or QHD), and/or any size prints in high quality up to 9x6in (just over A5 size). If you want to make a modest print, a print on a mug, or use for online purposes, this is the size for you.
The precise printable dimensions are 9x6 inches (22.9 x 15.2 cm) at 300 PPI. That’s 2700 x 1800 pixels. This is just over A5 size when printed (or much larger when viewed on most screens). JPEGs of these dimensions tend to be around 2-5MB each.
MEDIUM
'Medium' is for when you want high quality prints up to 12x8in (similar to A4), or want the flexibility to crop or zoom into portions of the image for quality online and video content.
The precise printable dimensions are 12x8 inches (30.5 x 20.3 cm) at 300 PPI. In pixels, that’s 3600 x 2400. JPEGs of such dimensions tend to be around 5-10MB.
LARGE
'Large' can be used for any sized prints up to 18x12 (just over A3) at the highest quality resolution. This size meets most people’s printing needs; bearing in mind the final artwork surrounded by a mount and frame will be around A2 size on your wall if you get it printed to the fullest size. It's also ideal for sampling in any 4K/5K videos, should you wish to purchase the image for such design projects.
The precise printable dimensions are 18x12 inches (45.7 x 30.5 cm) at 300 PPI. In pixels, that’s 5400 x 3600. JPEGs will be around 10-20MB in size.
OVERSIZED
The 'Oversize' option is for those wanting to go much further, with high-quality printing from A2 size right up to 30x20in (or beyond!), ideal for impactive wall art for your home or office.
The precise printable dimensions are 30x20 inches (76.2 x 50.8 cm) at 300 PP. That’s 9000 x 6000 pixels. The JPEG will be around 20-40MB in size, so check your WiFi before downloading!
This is an affordable way of making a bold statement in your home with original, Devon-based art. Once you’ve bought the JPEG, you can arrange your own print, frame and mount to have an impressive piece on your wall, all for under £100! What are you waiting for?
Other Sizes
Some of my artwork will be listed as different sizes for the small, medium, large, and oversized options. For example, I offer several square or panoramic image formats. In each However, in each case, you'll see the sizes listed in the purchase options.
