| Doing Arty-Farty Stuff | Are you visiting Perth, Western Australia? Are you interested in arty-farty stuff? Steve & Chris would be delighted to show you around our part of the world or to organise some arts/crafts activities for you - these could include gallery crawls, sketching/photography excursions, participation in workshops, paint-ins or paint-outs, life-drawing sessions, visits to artist's studios etc ... click here to email us |
| Photography of Artworks | Do you need a photograph of your painting, sculpture or piece of pottery? We can produce a high-quality image as a print or a 35mm colour slide (slides are often required for competition entry). |
| Scanning | Do you have a collection of old 35mm slides you would like in digital form? We can scan them at up to 4000dpi, and copy them onto CDs for you. 35mm negatives can be scanned too, and APS format films (slide or negative). E-mail for a quote. |
| Custom Digital Art | Do you have a series of old photographs or memorabilia that you would like to put into some sort of collage/montage form (either entirely digital or some form of mixed media)? - email Chris about your ideas and she will be happy to come up with an artwork to suit your requirements |
| Artist's Boards | If you need boards for painting on, we can provide them, with either MDF or Masonite as the board material, painted or unpainted. Frames are made of plain pine, and sizes supplied so far include 900 x 600mm (the most common), 900 x 300mm, 1200 x 450mm. They can be made in almost any size. E-mail Steve for prices. |
| Artwork to suit your decor | Would you like an original artwork to suit your decor? Give Chris a photograph of the room with a swatch of the actual colours and a brief description of what you have in mind, preferably fairly abstract. All of Chris's artworks are absolutely unique so she will create an artwork and send you an image(s) for review. No down payment is necessary, but if you like the image and want to buy the artwork we require full payment before sending it. If you are not happy with the artwork and return it within 2 weeks, we will give you your money back, less the cost of freight. email Chris with your ideas |
| Framing | When Chris started painting, it became clear that a lot of money could be saved if I could do the framing myself. Since I consider myself a woodworker, I reasoned that it shouldn't be too difficult to make frames. I acquired some of the specialised equipment, and am now confident that I can frame most artworks. |
| Website Design | We have both worked in the computer industry for over 30 years - it wasn't even called "Information Technology" when we started! This website is entirely set up by us, using fairly simple tools. Our design approach is that in many cases "less is more", and that just because flashy thingscan be done doesn't mean theyshould be done. It is thecontent that is most important. We can also help you with the process of signing up with an Internet Service Provider, getting your computer set up, and registering a domain name. |
| Need help getting started with your digital photos? | Steve and/or Chris are happy to give you some 1-on-1 tutoring with getting started on your digital photography, saving images to your computer etc. |
| Mixed Media Demonstrations or workshops | Chris Marshall is available to do a mixed media/abstract demonstration to your art group or even a customised workshop. She also runs occasional workshops at Atwell Gallery entitled "Colour, Texture & Watching Paint Dry" |
| Access Databases | We thought this was the life that we have left behind - but if you really need some assistance with an Access database, both Steve & Chris have years of experience in this field. |
