What is Giclee?
Giclee comes from the French word meaning literally to squirt. Pronounced "jheeclay", it is a sophisticated inkjet printing method which refers to the process in which the ink is laid down on the paper.
The Giclee prints on sale in this website are digital scans of Sue's original artwork, made using high-resolution digital files and inkjet printers which "spray" tiny droplets of ink onto Somerset Velvet Enhanced paper. This paper is an archival quality watercolor paper specially coated to keep inkjets pigments on the surface, thereby creating an image that is archivally stable, yet vibrant and true to the original.
Sue's Fine Art Prints are made using Fine Art Trade Guild standard equipment, inks and paper. Tests have shown that the colours will last 70 - 80 years and in some cases even longer. Giclee prints are well accepted in museums and galleries throughout the world. They are a highly collectible, well established medium in the fine-art community.
