A Giclée print is a fine art limited edition print that boasts exquisite color and razor sharp detail. This kind of art print is the highest quality that can be produced with today's technology. If you want to buy a print that captures the truest essence of the original, then you will definitely want a Giclée.

The word Giclée itself is French, and refers to a spurt or squirt. In this case it means "spray of ink." From hundreds of inkjets, more than a million droplets of ink per second are sprayed on canvas spinning on a drum. Once completed, an image is comprised of almost 20 billion droplets of ink. The resulting print embodies an endless array of richly saturated color and captures every nuance of the original image.

All Kate Holmes' Giclée prints are produced with premium archival materials: 100% natural dyes on the highest quality canvas. Kate's canvas prints are available in both Gallery Wrap and Museum Wrap editions, stretched on durable hemlock stretcher bars. Each image is limited to a series size of 750, and each print is signed and numbered.




The canvas is stretched around 2" hemlock stretcher bars. The image wraps around the sides and is ready to hang.



The canvas is stretched around 3/4" hemlock stretcher bars. The image fills the face of the canvas, but the stretched sides remain white.
 
No frame required. Suitable for framing to individual taste.

Giclée prints are the modern equivalent of the traditional silver halide and gelatin printing process. And Kate's prints are Made in America!
