Giclče is a French term meaning “spray of ink”. An Iris Ink Jet print on watercolor paper or canvas is known as Giclče. Cats on canvas utilizes the technology of a Southern California based print company whose reproductions are on display in museums, galleries and private collections throughout the world. The editions of fine art prints you will acquire through Cats on Canvas are a collaboration between the artist, specially trained print craftsmen and a sophisticated fine art production facility who utilizes the highest resolution digital printers,. They have extended the boundaries of current technology by customizing their equipment, designing new programs to ensure quality standards for the collector. With the advent of the Giclée, the art of fine art printing has become even more precise. Because no screens are used, the prints have an even higher apparent resolution than lithographs. The dynamic color range is like a serigraphy. In the Giclče process, a fine stream of ink, of more than four million droplets per second, is sprayed onto archival art paper or canvas The effect is similar to the airbrush technique but finer. Each piece is carefully hand mounted onto a drum which rotates during the process. Exact calculations of hue, value and density direct the ink of four nozzles. This produces a combination of 512 chromatic changes (with over 3 million color possibilities) of highly saturated nontoxic water-based ink. The artist’s color approval and input are essential for creating the final custom setting for each edition. In this process the most archival water-based organic inks available in the world are used. The process is then completed by the application of light retardant and light stabilizer post coatings. The results are museum quality prints. Displaying a full color spectrum, Giclče prints capture every nuance of an original painting-be it watercolor, oil or acrylic. They have gotten wide acceptance from artists like David Hockney and Robert Rauschenberg to major art institutions like the Los Angeles County Museum, The Chicago Art Institute, The Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York and the British Art Museum, London England.
