ABout the Photographs, Prints, Sizes and Prices
All the photographs and digital drawings are printed on metallic paper, also can be printed on other mediums - canvas, metal, watercolor paper, etc.
** Metallic paper is a photographic paper made by several companies, but its process is very delicate and expensive. Thus, the prices of my prints reflect that uniqueness, also all my work is limited to no more than 15 prints per size, although on the larger sizes, or *** Gicleés I only limit my work to 5 prints. Also if you buy more than one print you will have up to 20% discount of the total price.
All the print are professionally matted.

About Giclee Printing
The term "giclee print" connotes an elevation in printmaking technology. Images are generated from high resolution digital scans and printed with archival quality inks onto various substrates including canvas, fine art, and photo-base paper. The giclee printing process provides better color accuracy than other means of reproduction.
The Process:
Giclee prints are created typically using professional 8-Color to 12-Color ink-jet printers. These modern technology printers are capable of producing incredibly detailed prints for both the fine art and photographic markets.
The Quality :
The quality of the giclee print rivals traditional silver-halide and gelatin printing processes and is commonly found in museums, art galleries, and photographic galleries.
