The minute closeness and intense colour of the ink produces a high-quality archival image. Artists often add hand-drawn or painted features to create original prints from multiples. C-Print, or a chromogenic print is the most common type of colour photographic printing. C - Prints are composed of layers of cyan, magenta and yellow ink that together create a full-colour digital image.
