GICLÉE FINE ART PRINTS: These are the finest quality art prints available. The word giclée (pronounced "jheeclay") is a French word meaning "to squirt or spray". The process begins by taking a professional digital photograph with a very high resolution. It is then transferred to a computer and printed on an Iris printer that produces these museum quality prints with over 4 billion possible colors allowing subtle tonalities and clarity of color that is not possible with any other duplicating process. An art print emerges, lush and velvety.  You will not see the dot screen pattern that is produced in standard offset printing and the colors in the giclée "sing". The soy, dye-based inks have been laboratory tested and have the same longevity as watercolor paint and are UV-resistant. The paper that I have chosen is a near duplicate of the 300 lb., acid-free, archival paper that I use for the original watercolors. From this marriage of art and science we celebrate the emergence of the giclée fine art print - a precise reproduction of an artist' painting with the qualities of an original - a method of reproduction that no other current technologies can accomplish.

I work directly in the studio with my printer, Winthrop Editions,  http://www.naturegallery.com and each print is issued in a limited edition, signed and numbered. These prints are not mass produced.
