1. What is a Giclee?
(zêe-clay) French for "to spray on", a Giclee is a gallery quality fine art print. Because no screens are used, the prints have a higher apparent resolution than lithographs. The dynamic color range is like a serigraph. In producing a Giclee - a fine stream of high quality ink - more than four million droplets per second - is sprayed onto archival art paper or canvas. The effect is similar to an airbrush technique, although much finer.

Each piece is carefully hand mounted onto a drum which rotates during printing. Exact calculations of hue, value and density direct the ink. This produces a combination of 512 chromatic changes, (with over 3 million colors possible) of highly saturated, nontoxic water-based ink. The artist's color approval and input are essential for creating the final custom setting for the edition.
