Morton Arts
Morton Arts
Morton Arts is a successful creative studio founded in 1997 by artists James Morton and Sara Morton. Foremost, it as an online showcase to promote and sell original paintings and prints. Over the years the business has progressively unfolded into a variety of creative facets.
Morton Arts has been producing Fine Art Giclée prints for twenty years. Art dealers, galleries, corporations and individuals recognize the outstanding professional quality of their Giclée prints.
Both James and Sara (father & daughter) work together and individually on a wide array of custom and digitally designed installation projects for corporations. They are approached by art consultants and art directors who have a concept or an idea of how they would like to transform a space. They collaborate with ideas and concept compositions until a satisfactory design has been reached. Accurate measurements for the installation space are provided and custom fitted art is created. The result is a dynamic two-dimensional work of art that fully encompasses a three dimensional space. Custom works are usually printed and installed by a large format commercial printer.
Morton Arts continues to grow.
Advanced techniques, concepts and commissions unfold as new creative demands develop.
