Giclée
The word Giclée is French for "to spray on" or "to spray ink". The original artwork is scanned and then sent directly to a high resolution ink jet printer. The prints are produced on a selection of watercolor papers, archival quality artist paper, or canvas, creating a look and feel similar to the original piece.
Independent research has established that the pigment-based inks and archival media we use have achieved a level of performance that meets the high standards of the demanding fine-art market and exceeds the longevity of other processes. Testing indicates that the combination of inks and media we use can be expected to last for more than 100 years to more than 200 years without fading even when displayed in well-illuminated environments.
Service
Attention to Detail & Personal Service
We take time to sit with the artists to find out what will work best for each project. Our professional staff has the expertise and experience to assure the highest quality reproduction of your artwork. We can also add graphic design elements, such as tiles or borders.
Minimize Storage & Manage Cash Flow
Since each image is individually produced, you can order prints in small quantities. We store the image file and can produce additional prints as needed, enabling you to minimize storage requirements and manage cash flow.
