Mounting Option #1

Mounting Option #2

Bring your artwork to life with the stylish lines and added depth of an acrylic print.   Your image gets printed directly onto the back of a 1/4" thick sheet of clear acrylic.

The image is the art - it doesn't get any cleaner than that!

All acrylic prints ship within 3 - 4 business days and arrive "ready to hang" with four aluminum mounting posts (Option #1) or hanging wire (Option #2).

The high gloss of the acrylic sheet complements the rich colors of any image to produce stunning results.

There are two different ways to mount your acrylic print.

Option #1 (Mounting Posts) - Attach your print to your wall with four aluminum mounting posts.   The cylindrical cap of each mounting post can be removed, allowing you to thread a small screw along the center axis of the of post and into the wall.   When you're finished, simply reattached each cap, and you're done.   The mounting posts act as stand-offs and keep your print separated from the wall by 1".   All of the required mounting hardware (i.e. posts, screws, and wall anchors) is included with your print.   Click here for mounting details.

Option #2 (Hanging Wire) - With this option, your acrylic print is attached to a 1/4" thick black board which has a wooden frame and hanging wire attached to the back.   There are no metal mounting posts at the corners.   Simply put a nail in your wall, hang your print from the hanging wire, and you're done.   Due to the thickness of the black board and mounting frame, your print is separated from the wall by 1.50"   Click here for mounting details.

Acrylic Print Reviews (1998)

Average Rating (4.77 Stars):

Two of my ipu with a purple orchid lei. Ipu are made from hollowed out gourds. They are slapped and pounded on a surface to make drumming sounds. They are used in Hawaiian culture when chanting, dance groups, mele chanting, just about any type of Hawaiian music. You will not find too much Hawaii music without the use of the ipu. Sometimes the gourds contain small rocks or pebbles to make the rattle. Then the tops are closed and decorated with feathers.

I have found that the way the ipu is made can vary between the Hawaiian Islands: Oahu, Kauai, Maui, Big Island, Molokai. The structure is the same but some decorate with different colored feathers, or rafia and other belt-like ties.
