About Giclée Fine Art Prints:

The Giclée  (Zhee-klay)  print process signals an elevation in printmaking technology.  Giclée prints are created typically using professional 8-color to 12-color ink-jet printers manufactured by vanguards such as Epson, MacDermid Colorspan, and Hewlett-Packard.  These modern technology printers are capable of producing incredibly detailed prints for both the fine art and photographic markets.

Images are generated from high resolution digital scans and printed with archival quality inks onto various substrates including canvas, fine art and photo-base paper.  

The giclée printing process provides better color accuracy than other means of reproduction.  The quality of the giclée print rivals traditional silver-halide and gelatin printing processes and is commonly found in museums, art galleries and photographic galleries.    

We recommend that you treat your giclée print the same as any original watercolor.  It should be protected from water and should not be placed in direct sunlight.  Giclée’s printed on paper should be frame mounted behind UV glass using acid free materials.   Giclée’s printed on canvas are treated with an acrylic varnish to aid in their protection, however careful treatment is still desirable.
