Giclee Prints
If you are looking to purchase a print or two of your own bespoke commission or have seen a portrait on my website that you would love to own a print of, please drop me a line. Each print is produced on a quality Hahnemuhle paper using high quality inks and are hand signed by myself. There are 2 sizes of prints available, both of which comes mounted and can be placed in a standard sized frame.
A giclée (pronounced 'gee-clay') is a digitally reproduced print which closely represents the original Artwork, created via inkjet printing. The image has all the tonalities and hues of the original painting/drawing. Purchasing a Giclee print is a cheaper way of purchasing a favourite piece of Art from me and if there is a piece of work on my site that you just love, there is a possibility that you can purchase a print of it.
About my Giclee Prints
There is no strict standard for Giclee printing, but the Fine Art Trade Guild do however specify a standard for archival Fine Art prints and that standard requires paper to be at least 250gsm in weight with a low acidity level (pH7 to pH10), when such paper is combined with modern pigment inks in top-end inkjet printers the result is a very high quality print that you can be confident will last.

Traditional Hinged method

The board/mount and tapes used are all acid free

Prints produced in this way can be expected to last many years. Accelerated tests indicate that 75+ years can be expected and quite possibly a lot longer. This is the process that my printer offers as he uses Epson printers with UltraChrome K3 pigment inks. Mounts are of archival standards using Arqadia mountboards.
Prints for Loved ones
When booking a commission, you may have friends and family who would like a copy too. You can purchase as many prints as you like, with no minimum order. Multiple orders will receive the benefit of a discount.

Please note: When ordering prints alongside the original artwork, there may be a mild difference in tones/colours on the print as digital images of the artwork are emailed to the printing company. A proof print may be required before orders are printed.
