Printing Process
Each Cheyne Walls limited edition photograph is printed and or approved by the artist himself, ensuring only the highest quality for his buyers and Collectors. Using a custom top-of-the-line printer, photographs are printed on a premium fine art metallic paper, allure aluminum or a premium fine art paper.
Before and after the printing process the paper is coated with newly developed archival pigments to prevent against fading and gives the photograph the vibrant colors and depth that Cheyne’s work is known for. Following the printing process, they are signed and numbered as a limited edition print.
How to Purchase
Due to limited availability, there are only these several options to purchase a Cheyne Walls Limited Edition Photographic Print.
Capturing the Photograph
These are all actual photographs from real locations. All images have been captured with a professional high quality panoramic camera system, lenses & filters on location around the United States, Canada, Europe & Asia.
Camera techniques are used during perfect lighting conditions so when printed will present the location as if you were standing there witnessing that moment yourself. Today’s best camera technology still doesn’t even come close to what the human eye can appreciate. This is where the use of lens filters and an in-depth printing process fills in to recreate the scene, as the human eye would see it.
Limited Edition Photographs
How it Works
A limited edition photograph is hand signed and numbered by the artist. In the lower right hand corner of the photographs on display are two numbers. The first number is the edition number of the print itself and the second is the total number of prints that will be made. Photographs by Cheyne Walls are extremely rare and released in editions of only 18.
After the 18th print is sold, the photograph will no longer be available for purchase. Digital files and/or film will be destroyed, ensuring the image cannot be re-released and the integrity of the edition remains intact.

Artist’s Proofs
The first few prints Cheyne produces are called an “Artist’s Proof ” and are kept on hand as the print proofs for future printing. Artist Proofs are very exclusive and very few will ever be produced. They will be signed, “AP” and numbered in order as printed. Artist Proofs are priced higher than Limited Edition Prints due to their extremely limited nature. Additionally they are the first printed of that photograph.
AP are not displayed in galleries and not often available for purchase until that photograph is close to sold out. Artist Proofs can only be purchased through the artist himself.
