Giclee Prints

The art of fine art printing has become even more precise with the advent of the revolutionary Giclee (ghee-clay) printing process. A Giclee print is as rewarding visually as it is technically amazing. For brilliant, exquisite color and razor sharp detail it is unsurpassed. This type of art reproduction is quickly becoming the new standard in the art industry, and is widely embraced for its quality by major museums, galleries, publishers, and artists. A Giclee Print is simply the closest duplication of an original artwork that is humanly, mechanically, or technically possible. Giclee Prints of Lorelle Bacon's Oil Paintings and Mickey Buckwalter's B&W Drawings Select either to continue: Giclee Print on Watercolor Paper, $245 ea. Giclee Print on Canvas, $215 ea. What Is A Giclee Print? The word Giclee itself is French, and means spurt or squirt, in this case meaning, “spray of ink”. Once completed an image is comprised of literally billions of droplets of ink. The latest Giclee Printing Technology enhances the standard 4-color process to an 8-color process. The resulting print has no perceptible dot pattern, an endless array of richly saturated color, and every nuance of the original image. The most archival, water based lightfast inks available in the world are used. The latest inks offer a 150 year light-fastness and UV-resistance under museum archival condition. Beyond this description, a Giclee Print simply must be seen to be fully appreciated. Fine Art Galleries across the country are warmly receiving Giclee. Giclee prints have an impressive exhibition record. They have been shown in museums and galleries throughout the world.
