It is so very exciting to watch new editions of my work being born! After this month’s humiliation with copyrights I gave to a calendar publisher, I am determined to get it right and as absolutely as close to the colors in the original as possible. Giclee’ prints are wonderful in that the control of the color can be so precise! Because of the texture of the originals, the typical printing technique of producing prints from a high-quality photograph just did not reproduce well. The flat photography lost the feeling of texture the originals. We discovered that developing reproductions from direct high resolutions scans capture the depth and shadows of each of the wrinkles and cracks caused by the process of the paper movement as well as colors and shapes to create and bring the most realistic feeling of the texture in a reproduction. I am leaving my light on...oh how I love what I do!
