A new process using advanced technology to create a lustrous, continues-tone painting. Organic, water-based four-color inks are applied to the surface of archival papers or canvas from tiny jets one-tenths the diameter of human hair.Sometimes referred to as a iris print. The term for the process of making fine art prints from a digital source using ink-jet printing, that comes from the French verb gicler meaning "to squirt, to spray." Originally it applied to fine art prints created on Iris printers in a process invented in the early 1990's but has since it has come to mean any high quality ink-jet print. The word “giclée” represents any inkjet-based digital print used as fine art. The intent of that name was to distinguish commonly known industrial "Iris print" proofs from the type of fine art prints artists were producing.
