Art Projectors



An opaque art projector is a great way for artists to increase both their productivity and creativity, but there is always a bit of confusion attached to purchasing the right one for your needs. This directory has been established to allow artists to make informed decisions about purchasing the supplies they need for their upcoming artistic endeavors. We plan to take the headache out of purchasing your first opaque art projector, or even helping you choose a replacement model.

The opaque art projector is available in all makes, shapes, types, and price ranges. The market is basically flooded with different choices when it comes to buying the right projector. Our directory recommends Artograph art projectors because of the company’s attention to detail, the machine’s long lasting durability, and the consistent performance that we’ve found when using Artograph products.

When selecting the right projector, don’t let price be your only factor. A low price tag may look good in the beginning but may not grow to fit the future needs that you have in an art projector. Most art projectors serve the same purposes – to project an image onto a work surface where it can be traced, viewed, and scaled. The artist can duplicate the image exactly or opt to make creative changes for a unique piece.

When choosing an art projector, take into consideration whether the projector can perform various functions. Your art projector should be able to easily project your selected image onto both vertical or horizontal surfaces for easy use on a tabletop, canvas, easel, wall, and other surface. You should be able to project various sizes of your image and be able to reduce and enlarge the image without trouble.

Before purchasing your opaque art projector, decide whether you want a portable or stationary projector, based on whether you will be transporting the projector from place to place. Determine if you have an appropriate room to use the projector in or if you will need to buy special room darkening curtains or blinds.

The Artograph Prism art projector has most of the features that artists look for when buying an art projector, and is quite economically priced (another great plus). The reason that our directory recommends Artograph products is that the company has been around for over sixty years and therefore has a lot of expertise in the industry. The Artograph prism model weighs just under 8 pounds, so it is very portable. It loads from the top, which allows for flexibility in projecting three-dimensional objects, and allows for enlargements up to 20 times the size of the original, or reductions of down to 80% of the original size. Reductions are fast and easy with a simple lens reversal mechanism.

By checking with our comprehensive art supply directory before purchasing your opaque art projector, you can be linked directly to the quality products that your next artistic endeavor requires, by name brands that are known throughout the world for their reliability. Finding your art projector or other art supplies is fast, fun, and easy when you check with our directory – we take the legwork out of making tough decisions for discerning professional and student artists.
