One workshop. Two perspectives. Works worth keeping.
We are Yolanda Alba Rodríguez and Juan Lamata Bethencourt. At Color3arte®, we print graphic art, photography, and illustrations in Fine Art Giclée quality Giclée artists, galleries, collectors, and institutions.
We don’t operate like an automated printing press. We review the file, discuss the intended use of the work, select the right paper, and treat each copy as a finished piece.
High-quality art prints for graphic art, photography, and illustration.
We produce fine art Giclée prints Giclée archival paper using pigment-based inks and controlled color management.
We specialize in transforming a digital file, an original work, or a limited edition into a physical piece that remains true to the artist’s vision: durable, clean, precise, and ready for exhibition, sale, or collection.
Fine Art Papers
We work with conservation media selected for their texture, white point, tonal response, stability, and physical presence.
Pigment-based inks
We use high-quality, professional-grade inks designed for works intended for exhibition, archiving, sale, or limited edition.
Color Management
We create and use specific ICC profiles to map the digital file to the actual behavior of each type of paper.
Gold-Certified Studio
Color3arte® is Hahnemühle Studio Gold, a certification that reflects expert consultation, consistent print quality, and the use of Hahnemühle FineArt papers.
The place where the screen contrasts with the paper.
The screen is a reference; the printed page is the ultimate test. A printed strip allows you to assess texture, density, blacks, shadow details, color response, and the image’s actual impact.
- Monitors calibrated for consistent color accuracy.
- Custom ICC profiles for each combination of printer, ink, and paper.
- Technical review of resolution, aspect ratio, format, and color space.
- Color proofs when the project or publication requires them.
- Final visual check before handing over or sending the copy.
It's not just about printing. It's about seeing the work through to its final form.
Every image requires a different approach. That is why our process combines technical review, consultation, controlled production, and quality control.
Receipt of the file
We review the size, resolution, aspect ratio, color profile, and any potential technical limitations.
Advice on paper
We select the substrate based on the image, the desired finish, and the intended use of the artwork.
Preparation
We adjust the print settings to the chosen paper, the final size, and the specific requirements of the image.
Fine Art Printing
The artwork is printed using pigment-based inks on fine art paper in a controlled process.
Quality Control
We check for detail, cleanliness, margins, size, visual stability, and finish.
Packaging and Shipping
We handle each copy with care to protect the surface, the corners, and the paper.
Visual quality is only part of the story. The work must also stand on its own merits.
When a work is sold, exhibited, or part of a limited edition, it requires documentation, identification, and technical consistency.
That is why we use physical and digital authentication systems that help link each copy to its author, its technical details, and its edition.
Numbered hologram
A physical identification seal associated with each copy or certificate.
NFC chip
Digital authentication that can be read by compatible phones.
Digital Profile
Technical details, authorship, medium, dimensions, and provenance of the work.
Limited edition
A more transparent, verifiable, and accountable production process for collectors.
We work with artists, galleries, and institutions that understand the difference between printing and producing artwork.
Over the years, we have worked with artists, photographers, illustrators, galleries, collectors, exhibition projects, and limited editions.
Casa de América
Production of photographic work for an institutional exhibition project.
ARCOmadrid
Production of graphic materials for artists and projects associated with the fair.
Asturias Museum of Fine Arts
Works printed using Color3arte® acquired by the museum for its permanent collection.
The Greenroom · Comic Art
Numbered fine art prints by artists in the fields of comics and illustration.
Due to the confidential nature of certain series, editions, and private commissions, there are authors and projects that we prefer not to mention publicly. If you need specific references, we can provide them privately.
A study with two perspectives.
Every print that leaves the studio undergoes a technical, visual, and material review. That is the difference between producing a print and simply making a copy.
Yolanda Alba Rodríguez
“For me, printing means guiding a work until it takes on its physical form. I talk with the artists, help them choose the paper, print the piece, review the nuances, details, and finishes, and only give my approval when I feel the piece is ready to leave the studio.”
Juan Lamata Bethencourt
“My job is to transfer the image to paper with precision and care. I print, adjust, trim, and check the color, contrast, and finish so that each print retains the impact of the original and meets the standards of a fine art print.”
