statement

I love art supplies as much as a love art - so sticking with one type of media isn't really my thing. I dabble in all sorts of stuff.

When wearing the "multimediamama" hat, I create pieces that relate their message in an engaging and fun way. The finished product will be engaging, relevant, usable, "on brand" and sustainable.

the prints

Prints from p.c. helm are created with the best in giclée technology. The goal is to create the best quality print possible at an affordable price.

The Epson Stylus Pro 7900 printer combines the precision of a MicroPiezo TFP™ print head with the extraordinary performance of Epson UltraChrome® HDR archival ink, including all-new orange and green, producing the widest color gamut ever from an Epson Stylus Pro printer.

Entrada Rag Paper is what put the Moab brand on the map. This award-winning 100% cotton smooth bright white fine art paper is an archival acid- and lignin-free paper with an expanded color gamut, natural contrast and high ink load. Your prints will last for generations.

the frames

The frames used at p.c. helm are made in the USA from REAL, solid wood. Frames 11x14 and smaller (including 12x12) come with real glass. All other frames come with 0.035 inch styrene. All framed prints are backed with acid free foam core. pH neutral mat board is used for prints that include matting.
