We had hard copies done (of Anne at YVR and water's edge) - the last images done).

I took these hard copies and put them on top of similar colors in my Painting Exhibition Catalogue Images with the same colors. When I put the colors on top of each other, the Red and Blue colors (of my hard copy and Catalogue images) matched the red and blues in some of the catalogue's images - within 1% or 2% of the difference in color, contrast and brightness levels
between them. This closeness really surprised me how close the colors were.

I feel this method can be used to check one's work (and Printing Shop's work) very accurately. I suggest using an Independent Photo Print Shop (or yourself - if you do this work) - not one by mail or in a department store or similar for doing this.
