Giclee Prints on Canvas

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. Using pigment based inks, a series of tiny nozzles spray the canvas with a fine spray.  Because there are no line screens involved, Giclée prints have a higher resolution than offset lithographs, (about 1800 dots per inch) In offset lithographs each dot of color is encircled by white space, like in newspaper printing. In the Giclée process, however, inks are sprayed as droplets rather than dots; each droplet bleeds into the canvas creating a more continuous tone. The Giclée prints' inks are a pigment based ink, verses an ink which uses dyes, and have been tested for longevity and outlast most lithograph inks being used. The Pigment particles are larger then that of dye particles, and are hold color longer. The prints have shown to last 85-100 years without noticeable fading, assuming certain care factors are followed, allowing archival museum-quality prints.

Sugar Bear
Limited edition Sold Out  10 Artist Proofs available - Giclee on canvas 
16 x 12 inches.
Last summer I was doing a show at the Tanner Gallery in Ruidoso, NM.  One
morning a bear took out all their hummingbird feeders and the next day
we saw a Mama Black Bear and two cubs cross the road and walk right through
the Gallery Parking lot headed for a little stream just behind the gallery.
What a sight! All of that inspired "Sugar Bear".   A baby Black Bear is raiding the
hummingbird feeder and boy are those little birds mad!

MANU
​Limited Edition of 95 signed and numbered - Giclee on canvas 10 x 8 inches

Manu was severely abused by being tied in a yard to a tree and neglected. When he was brought to the rescue center, he was nearly dead. The vet said he had not more than a week left.  The people at the Candy Kitchen Wolf Rescue worked with him for months, restoring his physical health and working on his mental health. Wolves are by nature a social animal and Manu wanted nothing to do with people or wolves. Over a long period of time, various female wolves were introduced to him and he chased them away until one day they brought Sequoia into his pen. She was an Alpha female and did not tolerate his attitude. There was a click and it was love a last for good old Manu. No we know behind every successful Manu is a good woman.
