Hey, I've been building the type that prints and ships it for you. We don't provide discoverability, but in exchange we have extremely low prices ($22 for a 12x12" stretched canvas, no commissions or monthly fees). You can see the link in my profile (amanufactory).

how much to print+ship a 11x14 watercolor piece?
- chrischen 12y ago
  ~$10 to print and ~$6 to ship. Our paper print prices aren't finalized yet, but will be coming in less than Society6. You can also list your original watercolour piece for sale alongside the fulfilled stuff. If you're interested, request an invite and let me know your username. We'll have finalized pricing soon.

is it inkjet/giclee only?
- chrischen 12y ago
  We have stretched museum quality canvas prints (all below competition's pricing), fine art prints, and will be launching other products as well like iphone cases, shower curtains, etc. You just submit artwork. You can also list your own products alongside the printed stuff, so it's not just inkjet prints.

    > stretched museum quality canvas prints What does that mean? It seems like a contradiction in terms. Stretched-canvas prints were invented for the interior design market. While I won't go so far as to say that a museum has never hung a canvas print, I've never seen it and I'd be surprised to see it done except as a self-conscious thumbing-of-the-nose at the establishment.

      It's just a ubiquitous marketing term. What I mean is it's the standard fine art quality marketed by others. Acid free, varnished, thick canvas, "archival" inks.

Thanks for pointing it out, I'll try to keep it on my radar (if you have a not-much-bother newsletter I'd be happy to give you my email so I get some remainder as you move it on). How outrageous would shipping prices go for the rest of the world?

  For a gallery wrapped 12"x12": Shipping to most countries outside of the US is about $14 for economy (ground). Shipping to Canada is about $21. And within the contiguous US states, $10. This is on top of the $22 base price, which brings the total cost to $32 (a few bucks cheaper than Costco). Feel free to email me at chris@instapainting.com, or request an invite on amanufactory.com, and I'll keep you updated!
