Phoenix, April 21, 2009:

Artisan Colour announced today an expansion of their product offerings with the purchase of Mighty Imaging to create a new Display Graphics print division. With the acquisition, Artisan Colour will be adding superior print technology and precision custom finishing to its award winning color management, providing a seamless workflow to its customers nationwide.

The strategy at Artisan Colour is to focus on capture, creation, output and finishing by identifying the Gold Standard in imaging technology and bringing it all under one roof.

Artisan’s line-up will provide their customers superior display graphics with an exceptional mix of equipment. This will enable Artisan’s clientele to take their message beyond the norm by providing exotic applications such as wood, metals, fabrics, wallpaper, glasswork, custom furniture and fine art to name a few.

According to Doug Bondon, President of Artisan Colour and one of its founding members, “The addition of the Mighty Imaging print division made sense for our customers.

David Mehrer BFA Exhibition

David Mehrer is an artist completing the photography program at Minnesota State University Moorhead. You probably remember seeing Moorhead and Fargo on the news in the past couple of weeks with the Red River cresting and subsequently flooding the surrounding area. Because of that situation, the University's BFA Exhibition had to get rescheduled. The show will go on, and is opening on April 27th.

David uses light almost like sculptural aspects in his photography. His mixture of the media creates new elements to traditional themes. We were happy to help out an emerging artist across the country. We wish David the best of luck with the upcoming exhibition and his career in the arts.

If you will be in the Moorhead area in late April, you can visit the Roland Dille Center for the Arts to see the show.

It is run by the First Baptist Church of Scottsdale and located in their campus. Their mission at the cafe is not only to offer good coffee, but to also build community relations through their services.

There is a opening reception for Chris' work April 2nd from 6 pm to 8 pm. The show will be on display until April 13th. To learn more about the Winfield's Cafe or their events visit their website.
