When local artist Betsy Peterson brought in her plans for the interiors of the Perry Lutheran Home, we knew we wanted to be involved. We took the time to visit the location, make detailed measurements and take photos. We created an overlay the artist used to create her final art which resulted in a final install that took every outlet and door handle into consideration.  Take a look at the process below—from sketches to successful installation. 

From Concept to Completion

When finished, Betsy brought the artwork to our Beeline and Blue production facility for scanning. 

Mary, our Fine Art Specialist, scanned the artwork using the Metis 2000, one of the best scanners available for fine art. The artwork was scanned @ 600 dpi, and Mary used the scanner's specialty software to maintain the lightest tones and colors in the artwork.

The artwork was printed using our HP LX3500 machine, capable of printing 1200 PPI, and using more than 70,000 print nozzles.

Attention all photographers!
