2. Finding the Perfect Purple 🎨

When I first started printing test prints, I didn’t realize how much personality a single colour could have. One shade too blue, and it lost its warmth. One shade too red, and it became something else entirely.

It took countless tests, late-night adjustments, and more paper than I’d like to admit — but when I finally found that perfect purple, I knew. It wasn’t just a colour. It was a feeling: calm, bright, and a little magical — the kind of hue that makes you smile before you notice.

The truth is, colour never looks the same once it leaves the canvas. Printers have their own language — one that takes time to learn. Finding the right settings, calibrating profiles, testing different papers — became its own form of art.

Each Qujanaq print is printed using archival pigment inks on museum-grade fine art paper, chosen for its texture, weight, and ability to hold colour exactly as it was painted — ensuring the work won’t fade, smudge, or lose its light over time.

From the original acrylic painting to the final print, every step is done in studio. More specifically, each print starts as a painting, then moves onto photographing, colour matching, and printing, all done by yours truly, to be hella sure every detail is on point. ✨

Because finding the perfect purple is’nt just about colour — it’s about capturing the right vibe. 🚀☺️
