Printing Process

Pigment based professional inkjet imaging offers a range of colors superior to anything available, mostly due to the use of special inks and our 12 color printing process. In comparison, traditional printing utilizes 4 colors (Cyan, Magenta, Yellow and Black). The use of this expanded range of colors is the main reason why giclee is the only method that can render accurate tonality and can better approach the contrast and brilliance of originals. Also, there is no use of half-screen like in traditional reproduction systems.

Fine Art Paper
We use only the highest quality archival papers. Because it is acid free your print should not yellow over time. If displayed properly your print should last over 100 years. To keep the colors as brillant as the day you purchased it, frame with an acid free mat and UV protectant glass. The saturation of colors on our fine art papers creates a beautiful, crisp, satiny finish to the piece.
Canvas
Prints on canvas looks exquisite, beautiful, impressive and elegant. Canvas Prints (giclees) do not need to be framed with protective glass so the image can be seen clearly without bothersome glares. The natural texture of the canvas gives to the print the look and feel of an original oil painting.
