Great description and very informative. I run a giclee studio in Bruton, Somerset, UK and i think its important to add a couple of things if i may...When taking the photos if using a camera it can be better to take multiple photos over lapping by about an inch to get a more detailed image. I do this with large originals say 24"and above. There are different softwares out there now that will stitch these together with no issues. This gives you a higher res image to start the colour matching process with and ultimately the options to print at larger sizes than the originals. The other thing which I'm not sure was mentioned, a giclee print needs to be on an acid free archival paper or canvas to be a giclee print. This combined with original manufacture inks (not third party) make for a real giclee print, light and colour fast for 85 + years. Lastly all printers are different and its better to use bespoke print drives for each stock of fine art paper or canvas to match the colours better when printing on a certain printer. Again thank you for spreading the word and helping make art work more available to a wider audience.

Great video! so much legible information in a very tight window of time. Awesome!

Great video! I like your explanation, very well presented. I liked and subscribed!

Extremely helpful, to the point and I appreciate the mention of a good glicee supplier. Thank you!

Thanks especially for the tips on photographing your art. I am getting ready to place my first order of giclee prints, so all the info i can get is helpful. Thanks again.

Thank you for this explanation! I'm currently eyeing a few prints on eBay but wasn't familiar with giclee.. this gives me much more confidence in the product and explains why price is a little higher than I'd expect. Definitely going to buy it now 😅 thanks again!

Just the video I was looking for. Thanks

Great description of the benefits of Giclee over other print methods

So informative! Thank you 😊

Thank you so much! Very clarifying!

This was very helpful thank you😃👍🏾

Thank you, this is helpful!

Really helpful, thanks

Great Job !

I'm in NH and just starting out with my art. What are the expenses of a giclee print? How many and what size? So many questions!

Would you make a tutorial on on2 to photograph art. Thank you!

Thanks very useful

First set of prints I did, I did not understand what checking the white balance meant and my prints did come out quite grey! Here's to trying again!

Thanks that is a start Where can find out how to print myself a giclee which one to buy

You know your stuff! You are very likeable also which keeps me watching.

thank you so much

Well done

Thanks!

Anyone have any beautiful giclee prints by one of their favorite artists? I have a beautiful one by Nicolas Uribe - looks SO true to the original painting!

Hi, thank you for the info. I have questions, not comments: Is Giclee print typically glossy? what is Hand Textured Giclee? Is Giclee art supposed to be expensive or at the same price range of hand painted art? Thanks

whats the different between a giclee print and a high-quality print on a poster I would buy at Micheals?

I just happened upon this video while searching for info on Giclee prints. I am also in NH and I had some additional questions on getting started with my art prints that I would love to ask you. Is there a good email I could use? 🙏😊

Can we embellish a Giclée with a gel medium and polish it after with a liquid Varnish?

3 seconds in: "Thanks, that's all I needed to know."

So you want a printer with a wider color gamut that is calibrated and profiled. Instead of saying Giclee, which seems rather vague, it seems like the customer should just specify that they want the original color matched on a printed able to do RGB color and specify the type of paper.

Links are ever so rarely in the description -_-

Is it worth having Black & White photos printed on Giclee?

Good information but the background music is distracting

but if the painting you did was 1m tall, you can't scan it, I assume. You'd have to take a photo. I'm new to this, I'm just thinking.

Colour gamut not spectrum

Have you ever tried using a tripod to hold your camera steady? Tripods have been used for centuries, rather than trying to hold your camera steady in your hands.

I have a great digital camera but my computer has died! Ugh!

Your voice is so cute and cartoonish (not a bad thing) Mmm you didn't mention the fact that a true Giclee print requires two main properties to be claimed as a 'Giclee' print. One, it must be made with Fine Art archival papers like Hahnemühle and the type of ink used must be 'pigment' ink opposed to dye based inks. Something that your viewers must also realise is, pigment inks are no where near as dynamic as 'dye' based printers (dye is the common style ink in most printers) B&W prints with the correct paper will look very professional though. So how do I kow all this? I Have a top end pigment printer and was very surprised to discover that the color gamut is inferior to dye based inks. (Dye is not archival and that's why the pro's don't use it.)

"Giclee" is not even a word. lol And you can make this at home. Isn't this the lowest quality print? No one I know uses ink. I thought electrostatic was best?

But ... a giclee print isn't a unique piece of art. I prefer to have originals.

why are you singing?
