Hello all! I’m Curious as to what some of you experienced print veterans think makes a great print. Any thoughts would be appreciate.
I’m new to the scene and have been bit by the collectors bug after discovering this beautiful community of art, that I previously did not know existed.
Thanks so much :)

composition , design , no pin holes , no smudges , good registration , no creases bends or folds..... there are tons of good prints that get ignored there are tons of prints hyped that are poor.... buy what you like at what you're willing to pay for
