Originals by Blue are comprised of two categories; Art Pieces and Sketches. Both types are produced by hand using archival mat board. However, these two categories are distinguished by their purpose, medium, and level of detail. Art Pieces are produced using archival ink with a deliberate focus on representing an artistic subject or idea within the style of Blue Art Studio Company. These pieces are detailed, clean, and are intended to be viewed as legitimate artworks. Sketches are created with pencil and are intended to accompany a story written on the Blue Art Studio Blog. These artworks are specifically created with rougher outlines, abstract shading, and looser shapes.

Originals, if available, can be purchased in the online shop. Prices for originals vary greatly depending on type of medium, size, complexity, and time spent creating the piece.

Limited Edition Prints can be found in the online shop.

• Because they are identified as limited, the print medium and size are pre-selected.

Open Edition Prints can be found in the online shop.

• Because these prints are not limited, print mediums and sizes can be selected in the shop. Print sizes range based on the aspect ratio of the original piece. Print medium can be chosen between 6 options:

  • Archival Matte Print

  • Archival Satin Print

  • Archival Metal Print

  • Archival Acrylic Print

Portfolio (Gallery) vs Online Shop

• A Portfolio is a curated collection of art from an artist/designer intended to showcase their best pieces. In the case of Blue Art Studio Company, this is represented as the web Gallery. Not all pieces shown in a portfolio (or the gallery) will be for sale in the online shop.

• The online shop is the location for purchasing products, not a full collection of work from Blue Art Studio Company.

To learn more about the difference between originals, limited edition vs open edition prints, mediums, etc. see below in the Art Crash Course section.

• Limited Edition Prints are priced more than open edition prints, but less than the originals. They vary in price depending on how the original piece was created (medium, size, etc), the type of print material used, cost of scanning, and total number of limited prints.

Apparel and Accessories

• Apparels and accessories are priced based on the garment type or accessory type and whether or not it is a limited piece. Because styles and garment types change from time to time, we do not have a posted pricing guide.

• We do our best to ensure apparel and accessory prices reflect the quality of each item without over-pricing anything. We believe cost should reflect quality, not hype.
