Questions and Answers about the Giclée Art Reproduction Process
What is involved in having my art reproduced?
The process is very simple and takes two weeks. During the first week I will photograph your painting or other flat work and create a "proof" for your approval. You'll come to the studio and examine this "proof" and let me know if it is accurate or not. If so, then you'll sign the proof and I'd make matching Giclée prints that would be available at the end of the second week. If additional proofs are needed, these would be created with the required changes at no additional charge.
I want a perfect proof the first time, how often does that happen?
Almost always. I don't want my clients coming back repeatedly to examine proofs so I've invested heavily in a wide variety of color-management and correction tools, the best monitors available, and a new color proofing room that makes the job of delivering accuate proofs easier than ever before.
How do you capture brush strokes and other fine surface details in paintings?
Brushstrokes and other surface details are brought out by the a variety of lighting techniques I've developed while photographing thousands of paintings for hundreds of different artists over the past twenty years. I don't use a cookie-cutter approach. I know you want perfection so that's what I shoot for.
Will my reproductions be sharp and clear?
Absolutely. I create enormous digital files of your paintings that record every last detail. This makes it possible for me to print at a higher resolution using millions of colors.
I have other questions I'd like answered, can you help ?
