Giclée is a revolutionary printing process whereby original artwork is digitally photographed, formatted and scanned into a computer. This process makes millions of colors available due to exact calculation
of hue, density and value that directs millions of droplets of non-toxic pigment based ink, from hundreds of very small nozzles, onto archival paper or canvas. -

Giclée reproductions have been tested for fading from light to determine the estimated life expectancy. Under proper care, they appear to emulate that of the original artwork, regarding fading. Giclée reproduced prints are now appearing in fine galleries and other esteemed houses around the world. This state-of-the-art process can make reproductions almost indistinguishable from the original painting. -
This process, when made in “Limited Edition” of the original artwork, is becoming of interest to collectors. When certificates of authenticity, numbered and signed by the artist, accompany these limited edition prints, their value is greatly enhanced by collectors.
