Electric Pagoda Printing began in 2023 out of necessity. As an artist himself, Chris de Armas struggled to find a place that could produce true, museum-quality prints at a price that artists could realistically resell to their clients. The shops that offer quality prints were often too expensive, while the affordable options lacked the craftsmanship and color accuracy that the artwork deserved. The solution was to build something different: museum-quality gicleée printing at an artist's price.
