Can I get a custom size or frame color?
We currently offer a curated range of standard sizes and frame colors to ensure perfect quality and fit. If you need a specific size, reach out — we may be able to help.
Will the colors look the same in person?
Yes, but slight variations can occur due to monitor calibration and lighting. Each print is color-checked before shipping to match the artist’s original design.
Where are the prints made?
All Swell Scenes artwork is printed and framed in the U.S. using trusted print partners who specialize in fine art reproduction.
What is Acrylite and why do you use it?
Acrylite is a crystal-clear acrylic that protects your artwork like glass but is lighter, more durable, and shatter-resistant — perfect for home or gallery walls.

Our open-edition prints are not numbered, but each piece is part of our exclusive Swell Scenes collection and designed by our in-house artists.
