| Giclee Reproductions...The Affordable Alternative
For many people collecting original artwork from a well-known
artist can sometimes be cost prohibitive. But now, new advancements in printing
technology are allowing more and more individuals to collect high-quality,
reasonably priced art reproductions that they can use to decorate their homes
and offices.
Giclee Printing Technology
The giclee printing process is a new technique that provides
an increased level of accuracy in fine art reproduction. Giclee, pronounced
"gee-clay" is derived from a French verb meaning "to spray" or "to
splash",
and is used to describe a print produced using this remarkable new printing
process. Giclees are created from a digital scan of an existing piece of original
artwork and are produced using a highly sophisticated printing technique which
fires one million droplets of ink per second through special state-of-the-art nozzles.
The giclee is printed on heavyweight, cotton canvas using specially
developed archival inks to ensure permanence in excess of 100 years. The canvas
is stretched using a gallery wrap technique which gives it the finished look
of the original painting.
Signed Limited Editions and Pricing
Priced at 20% the cost of the original painting, every giclee
is personally signed by the artist and select images are printed and numbered
as limited editions. Giclee prices range from $600 to $2,200 depending on
the size of the reproduction. The completed giclees are shipped unframed to
the client. Trade and volume discounts are available.
