WHAT IS A GICLEE?

GICLEE- (gee-clay) IS DERIVED FROM THE FRENCH WORD "TO SPRAY" OR "TO SQUIRT". YOUR INDIVIDUALLY SIGNED AND NUMBERED GICLEE BEGINS WITH AN ORIGINAL PAINTING BY PAM HOBBS. THE PAINTING IS PHOTOGRAPHED, SCANNED AND DIGITIZED INTO A COMPUTER FOR THE CLOSEST POSSIBLE MATCH TO THE ORIGINAL WORK. THE PRINTING PROCESS INVOLVES SPRAYING MICROSCOPIC DOTS OF INK FROM A LARGE PRINTER ON TO QUALITY ARCHIVAL PAPER OR CANVAS, RETAINING QUALITY FROM THE FIRST TO THE LAST PRINT IN AN EDITION.
