About Giclée Printing
 
The Definition :
Giclée (zhee-klay), derived from the French term meaning "spray of ink," is a revolutionary and new printing process of an image that is created or scanned into a computer, then printed on a high-speed ink-jet printer. The giclée process produces the finest digital prints that can be created from an original work of art.
 
The Process :
Prints are created on the Epson Stylus Pro 9600 and 9800 at 1440dpi or higher using UltraChrome pigment inks. These printers are capable of producing incredibly detailed prints. All prints are produced on museum quality canvas, much like the original painting. This gives each piece a similar look and feel to the original work of art. The quality is superior to all other printmaking methods.
 
Do Giclée Prints Need Special Care?
A giclée print should be protected from water and not be placed in direct sunlight. Giclées printed on canvas are treated with a museum grade varnish to aid in their protection; however, careful treatment is still recommended. Unfortunately, I will not be responsible for any damage to prints from improper handling or environmental conditions such as moisture, heat & light.

The Advantages :
Giclée canvas and inks are produced to be archival; they should last over 100 years! Reputable museums around the world, including the Louvre, New York's Metropolitan Museum, and the Guggenheim, display giclées as part of their collections.
