What does Digital Fine Art mean ? Canson ® Infinity media combine the qualities of traditional fine art ( art and printing ) papers with an innovative ink-receptive layer to produce or reproduce unique works of art on inkjet printers , without betraying the artist ’ s original wishes . The work is referred to as “ digital ” because it is first digitized ( either by scanning the original or by producing a fresh work on a computer ) then printed .
Advantages of no optical brightness additives Canson ® Infinity paper and canvas offers considerable resistance to aging and color stability thanks to the use of natural minerals which ensure the medium always stays white . Using optical brightness additives , on the contrary , does not guarantee the medium ’ s color stability because the additives become less effective with time , causing the paper to yellow .
