WHAT DOES ALL THIS MEAN?
Artist Proof: These prints (if any) are normally the first to be printed. In general they will normally be higher priced
because of the smaller edition size.
Open Edition: This means that an unlimited amount of prints can be made. These should be less expensive then the Limited
Edition prints and usually do not increase in value.
Limited Edition Prints: These prints will generally increase in value over time, particularly when the edition size is
sold. Once this happens there will be NO more prints made. The smaller the edition higher the value.

ABOUT GICLEE PRINTS
Giclee is a French word (pronounced jee-clay) that roughly translates to "squirt" or "spray". The
making of a Giclee is a very precise, time-consuming method of reproducing art with outstanding resolution, vibrant color
and unsurpassed detail.
This exceptional print is created by craftsmen utilizing a specialized printer spraying millions of droplets of archival
quality inks onto the canvas or watercolor paper. The result is a print that is as near the original as is humanly possible
with no detectable dot pattern that is found with traditional printing.
You can be assured by the purchase of a "Giclee" that you have obtained a fine museum quality print.

CARE OF YOUR PRINTS
The care of a Giclee is really no different from that of any original.
I will only highlight a few items - most of which I have violated at one time or another and have had to live with the undesirable
results.
Remove all packing material from your shipped print upon arrival.
Frame your piece as soon as possible, remembering if glass is used to use
a mat or some type of spacer between the glass and print to prevent the transfer of minute condensation.
Insure only acid free material is used.
Avoid placing in direct light; natural or fluorescent. Also avoid hanging
above heat sources or outside walls.
