Gicleé Prints
Our Gicleé prints are high resolution, digital prints made with archival inks
and papers. Gicleé (pronounced "zhee-clay") is a French term meaning "to spray",
describing the digital printing process. Digital color control is more accurate,
with greater opportunity for artistic interaction.
Gicleé prints are a recognized fine art print category like lithographs and
serigraphs. Gicleé printing is considered by many to be the world's best
technique for reproducing original works of art. Made with artists' materials,
gicleé prints look and feel like the original art.
There is a difference between making an exact reproduction of an original
painting and making a "digital creation". The cost and complexity of
professionally produced gicleé prints often lead to compromises, with results
that bear faint resemblance to the originals. We have taken the time to make
sure every print we offer is as close to the original painting as possible.
Knowledgeable collectors have been amazed with the side-by-side comparisons,
often unable to tell the original from the print. We feel our gicleé prints are
among the finest anywhere.
All Limited Edition prints are signed and numbered, with certificates of
authenticity. These prints are made with 100% archival D'Arches watercolor paper -
the same paper I use to create the original.
I believe that I have a responsibility to: price my original art work and Limited Edition Gicleé prints at market and assist them to appreciate in value over time.
