The Little Prints

Annie and Ansel aside, it’s tough living off the avails of one’s photographic art.

So we’re rather impressed by Montreal snapper Arold Blanchet, who’s making his name selling limited edition prints in miniature. His series of black-and-white prints are displayed around town in portable kiosks and feature Montreal-centric scenes like bikes in the snow, café culture, lonely parking meters and back alley graffiti. At just $4.65 a pop, collect them all and you’ve officially become a patron of the arts in a snap.
