Fulcrum Art Gallery (review)



I was fortunate enough to have the opportunity to browse through the remarkable breadth of pictures available at the Fulcrum Gallery and to be offered one of them in exchange for an honest review.  There are a variety of prints available, and one can get lost for hours browsing through the selections.  It is important to make sure that you are specific in your requests since, for example, a request for dolphins could garner either pictures featuring a sports team, a particular personality or a cetacean.  If your preference is for the classics, there are copies of famous paintings or one can order scenes of beautiful geographical locations.  There are photographs or paintings in various sizes and, if you are stuck for ideas, just start typing in a word and suggestions will pop up.  You may access the gallery through this link


Once you decide what subject you want, there are multiple ways to customize.  Choose the size of the print first as that will affect the rest of your options.  You can choose a type of frame (and there are quite a few variations in appearance and pricing), various matting options, and a selection of coverings which can be glass, plexiglas, glare protection or not, even a museum quality option.  Be advised that the appearance of the frame changes but it is still ultimately plastic.

Make sure that you sign up for the e-mail offers, especially since a coupon is offered immediately.  This offers a fun and economical way to decorate your space, if money is extremely tight, you can even forgo the frame and just purchase an attractive print or two.  Delivery was prompt and notification through e-mail is very timely. 

I was delighted to discover this wonderful resource and definitely will consider using Fulcrum Gallery again if I need to decorate my walls or buy someone a beautiful and thoughtful gift.

From the pictures below, you can see what an excellent job of packing they do and they obviously really want you to enjoy the print you receive as they offer a very nice guarantee.  The only thing that I do offer as a caveat is to make sure you get a ruler out and evaluate the sizes as I tend to be a little oblivious to how large things are so I was a little surprised when I unpacked the box and discovered that the picture was a little smaller than I had anticipated but I LOVE the print and it makes a great addition to my collection of big cat pictures!
