What is a Print on Canvas?
Answer:
Many of our paper prints are also available as a Limited Edition Print on Canvas or POC for short. The key thing to know is that the finished piece is on canvas so it has a texture to it. All of our POCs come complete with a linen liner and wood frame to complement the image. No glass is used. Your artwork has the look of an original painting for a considerably less price. Sam personally signs and numbers each Print on Canvas. The majority of our Prints on Canvas are produced individually by Sam. The ones produced in that way are called Giclee. The ink used in the printing process is called 100-year archival ink. That means that the print will outlast us all!

What's a remarque?
That term refers to a change Sam makes on a print (or Print on Canvas) to personalize it. For example, he can usually change the N# of an airplane. Many people like to have their own N# on the plane in a print if it looks like their plane. Sam can also often change the name on a sign, like in “Yellow Lure” or “Field of Dreams.” Sometimes he can change the color of an aircraft stripe or alter the plane is some minor way. For example, on “Cross Country Champ” he’s taken off the navigation lights for a customer. We try to accommodate any special request, but Sam can only change a print up to a point. For example, he can’t change the entire color scheme of an airplane. There is a charge for remarques. N# changes and other typical remarques are usually $75. Always feel free to ask if you have a remarque request. Just call Lyons Studio and talk to Sam or Mindy. You’d be amazed all the ways you can personalize a print to make it even more special to you.
What are the different ways I can purchase one of Sam's prints?
There are two ways to answer this question. 1.You can buy a Limited or Open Edition print loose, matted or framed. "Loose" means you're buying just the print. "Matted" means the print comes with double or triple mats, an imbedded plaque, and any standard wings or patches. The matted piece arrives shrink-wrapped and all you have to do is add the frame. Framed prints come complete and ready for hanging. All of our frames are genuine wood. Prices vary and when you browse through Sam's art, you can see all the options and prices. Just so you know, when you buy a Print on Canvas, it automatically comes with a wood frame and linen liner. 2. You can buy Sam's art online, or by email, phone, or fax. Never hesitate to call if you need help with anything.
