Framing Guide + Fine Art Print FAQS

Our artworks are all proudly Australian Made by us.

Drawn by hand, we then add various textures and print them ourselves in our Sydney studio alongside our local printer. 

What is a Limited Edition print?

Almost our entire collection of Fine Art Prints are Limited Edition. This means that there will only ever be a certain number of prints produced. Once we have sold the edition, there won’t be any more available. Each limited edition artwork is signed by the artist(s), and numbered in the edition (eg.1/100). We also include a Certificate of Authenticity that you can attach to the back of the framed artwork. 

We love that we can bring unique original artworks into your home that are: full of colour and joy, affordable and not mass-produced.


Can you recommend which artworks to choose? 

When there’s so much choice, sometimes it can be hard to know which artworks to choose. But we like to make it easy and fun. We create all our artworks in collections (or stories if you like). These collections have their own theme connecting them. This means you can easily create your own art collection that will ‘sing’ together. We’ve also put together some Print Sets that we believe you’ll love - they also come with a cheeky discount!


Can I commission an artwork?

As we are the artists, we are available for specific commissions. Contact us for more details at hello@lasource.com.au


What print sizes are available?

We currently sell our prints in 3 sizes A4, A3 & A2. Here’s a sizing image to help you figure out which size works best for you. 

What frames fit your prints?

We are often asked which frames work best and thankfully there is a lot of choice out there. 

Our Fine Art Prints fit standard sized frames from major retailers such as Ikea, Country Road, Kmart, Freedom etc. This ensures you can have your artworks hanging in no time! We’ve added some suggestions below to make it easier for you when choosing your artworks.

We also work closely with a local affordable and very friendly Mobile Custom Framer. He comes to you, helps you choose your frame, custom frames your artwork and then even hangs it for you. Get in touch if you’d like more info. *For Sydney/Melbourne customers.

 

RECTANGULAR PRINT FRAMES:

For our Small A4 and Large A3 Rectangular Fine Art Prints, most frames with a mat board window to fit A4 or A3 should fit. The IKEA Ribba or Hovsta frames fit well, and come with a lovely mounting mat board. For our Extra Large A2 Rectangular Fine Art Prints, there are lots of choices. An A1 Poster Frame with an A2 window will fit well. Kmart and many other retailers sell them. Unfortunately the larger IKEA Ribba frame has an odd sized mat board window.
