The original works are made on canvas and painted with acrylic.
Acrylic paint is a fast-drying paint made of pigment suspended in acrylic polymer emulsion. Acrylic paints are water-soluble, but become water resistant when dry. Depending on how much the paint is diluted with water, or modified with acrylic gels, mediums, or pastes, the finished acrylic painting can resemble a watercolour, a gouache or an oil ainting, or have its own unique characteristics not attainable with other media.
The contemporary giclée has become a valuable addition to the art world. "Giclée" is a French term, which means to spray ink. The pronunciation of giclée is “zhee-clay.”
Essentially a giclée is the reproduction an original 2 dimensional work of art using a highly specialized inkjet printer.
Giclée have a much higher resolution than offset lithographs and the dynamic color range is far greater than that of a serigraph. Giclée are produced using a high-resolution inkjet printer,
which can spray ink as small as 1/100th the width of human hair, this process is generally regarded by the art industry as the highest quality reproduction available and in many cases are
indistinguishable from the original artwork.
The final result is an exquisite artwork that does not need to be framed under glass and is of such high quality that giclée reproductions can be found on display at museums around
the world, including The Louvre, The Metropolitan Museum of Art and the Guggenheim.
HD Finish is based on an aluminium panel, which is provided with water resistant inks that are incorporated into the top layer by means of heat technology (sublimation). The result of this process is a superior end product that has no equal in terms of contrast, color depth, durability and logevity.
