It used to be that you sold a painting, that’s it, its gone. Only one buyer gets to appreciate your work. Artists include reproduction prints as part of their collection so that they can reach more art buyers who may have loved the original but its no longer available. Prints are affordable and great options for low traffic area’s, spare bedroom, hallways. Often Collectors choose to buy original works for the public areas of their homes. Beautifully framed Limited Edition Print’s offer an alternative and a cost saving. Rental Homes, Hotels and Offices have been opting for the upscale Giclée Prints with a cost saving for years, you may have noticed the art in public spaces and not even realized it wasn’t an original. Decorators know the impact that beautiful art adds to a room, beautiful art can often pull a scheme together giving a very high end elegant finish.

What is a Giclée?

(pronounced “zhee-clays”). Giclees can be used to reproduce many different types of art.

Giclee is a French term meaning “to spray”, referring to how an inkjet printer works and how giclee prints are usually produced. These large format inkjet printers use small spraying devices that can both match color and apply ink precisely, giving artists a high-quality print of their original art. Claire also color approves each print, signs and numbers each print.

Some collectors like to see the hand of the artist in the print and Claire has perfected her retouch technique so that texture and detail can be seen in the work.

High quality archival inks and canvas are used in our Giclée Prints and if a client wishes the print to be embellished we talk through the process and Claire does all the work personally. There is no behind the scenes team!

Open Edition vs. Limited Edition Prints

Artists have the option to create either open edition or limited edition prints. With open editions, a number of prints that can be created and sold are unlimited, offering artists a constant source of possible revenue.

On the other hand, the number of limited editions is carefully chosen and no more can be created after they are all sold. Of course, this does make limited edition prints more valuable in the eyes of a collector, so artists are able to charge more for this type of print.

All of the prints in the CJK collection currently (2023) are Limited Editions.
