Black River Art Gallery |
The Black River Art Gallery is excited to announce a New Collection of very Limited Edition Giclees from Sandra Klingbeil. The New Arch Angels Collection is being reproduced from a very special collection of Original Watercolor paintings. The three paintings are currently all owned by private collectors and are only being reproduced in Giclees. Giclees are the closest thing to an original work of art. Each image will only have 25 Giclee Prints produced, a true Limited Edition!
"Rapheal – The Guardian" is the first in the series of three and is now available at the Black River Art Gallery. We would encourage you to stop in and view this image.
These exciting images are individually scanned, color corrected and approved by Sandra before a Giclee Print is produced.
Giclée (pronounced "ghee-clay") is a French word that may be loosely translated as "spray of ink". The term has come to be used internationally for a type of high resolution digital art print made from an archival combination of ink and media. It is a recognized category of fine art reproduction such as serigraph or lithograph, and may be superior to all other types of prints for reproducing original works of art.
The process of making giclées is digital throughout, providing higher resolution and more variation of color than any other printmaking technique. Giclées may be made directly on a variety of authentic artist materials, such as watercolor paper and canvas. Unlike canvas transfers, which remove an image from the original paper medium and apply the image to canvas, giclées are created for and printed directly on canvas or high quality watercolor paper.. There is therefore nothing lost, in fact the depth and richness of color that may be achieved in the process is comparable only to original works of art. Although the process of making giclées can be time intensive, it offers the artist the opportunity of much more control than is available in other techniques.
State of the art equipment and materials, combined with painstaking hand finishing, have resulted in reproductions that are virtually indistinguishable from her original creations. Only highly stable and fully pigmented UV inks are used on these beautiful Giclee Prints to ensure that they will stand the test of time.
