original art for sale or for ordering giclee prints.
Giclees (Jah-clay): giclee prints offer one of the highest degrees of accuracy and
richness of color available in any reproduction technique. Museums are known to
use giclee prints to display works of art, with the originals kept in the museum
basement vaults. Giclees are printed by using special inks in a highly technical
process that prints images directly onto watercolor papers or canvas surfaces,
using substrates that are acid free and archival. A result of the marriage of art
and modern technology, a giclee faithfully reflects the vibrant color, rich detail
and lush texture of the original. Giclees are produced one at a time, and
depending on size, this intricate printing process can take up to an hour
or more for each print.
