• What is giclée? How are the prints made?
  Giclée refers to a new method of creating fine art,limited edition prints. The process begins with a digital high resolution scan of the original painting. Special software programs are used to manipulate the attributes of the digitized image, (i.e., color balance, contrast, brightness, etc.) to achieve the artist's own desired requirements. The new digitized image is then printed on archival papers or canvas with colorfast archival pigment based inks with a high resolution printer. Finally, each giclée is signed and numbered.
  Each print is individually enclosed in archival clear resealable envelope with acid free backing board. There is a white border around each print to allow for matting.
