Giclee Prints
Like offset lithographs, Giclée prints start with an original painting. A transparency of the original is scanned into a computer, where it can be color corrected, stored digitally and printed out as needed. Proofs are compared to the original for color and detail accuracy. Adjustments are made until the final proof is as close to the original as possible. The edition size is set at 95 with 10 Artist Proofs. The prints are created in sets of 10. When the 95 are sold out, no more prints of that image are made.
A series of tiny nozzles spray the paper or canvas, with a fine stream of pigmented ink. Giclée prints have a higher resolution than offset lithographs because there are no line screens involved. Giclee prints have about 1800 dpi (dots per inch) while offset lithographs are about 300 dpi. The dots of color on Lithograph prints are encircled by white space, like in newspaper printing.However, in the Giclée process inks are sprayed as droplets rather than dots; each droplet bleeds into the paper creating more of continuous tone than dot pattern. The Giclée prints' inks are a pigment based ink, verses an dye based ink and tests for longevity outlast most lithograph inks. The Pigment particles are larger than that of dye particles, and hold color longer. The prints can last 85-100 years without noticeable fading, assuming certain care factors are followed for archival museum-quality prints
