Marcus Thomas, Artist: About the Prints:

The cornerstone of the Giclee' process is enhanced digital ink jet printing. The printers are specifically designed for the rigorous and precise criteria of fine art collectors and connoisseurs of museum quality limited edition prints.

The word Giclee' itself is French, and means spurt or squirt, in this case meaning "spray of ink". Once completed an image is comprised of literally billiions of droplets of ink. The latest Giclee' printing technology enhanced the 4-color process to an 8 - 13 color process.

The resulting print has no perceptible dot patten, an endless array of richly saturated color. The most archival, water based lightfast inks available in the world are used. The latest inks offer a 150 year light-fastness and UV-resistance under museum archival condition.

Beyond this description, a Giclee' Print simply must be seen to be fully appreciated. Fine Art Galleries across the country are warmly receiving GICLEE.

Giclee prints have an impressive exhibition record. They have been shown in museums and galleries throughout the world. A few examples are:

Here is an example of a paper print that we produce.

The smaller thumbnail images are details of the print. All prints have ample margins. Each print is authenticated by a blind stamp ( Snowy River Logo ) in the left

hand corner of the print. Each print is signed by Marcus.

Printing:

Our canvas prints are printed in the same manner as the paper prints. The most significant difference is that these images do not need to be matted and framed like a traditional paper print. The canvas' are protected with a UV Varnish. There are several different options for framing canvas prints. Traditional frames, floating frames, no frame. We will try to post a few examples for you so see. Note that we ship the canvas' with a 1" or 1.5" stretcher bar.

Boutique Canvas Prints.

The Boutique Canvas Prints Collection are limited to 100 total of the particular image. ( exception: Time Flies ) There are no paper prints available. These are a true Collector's Series with such a limited number available.

Most of our paper prints are shipped flat. If a paper print is oversized and will not

fit in a 24" x 36" flat folder then it will be rolled and shipped in a tube. If this is the case it will be noted on the print information. Shipping in a tube is perfectly acceptable for packaging but we do not recommend leaving it in the tube for extended periods of time. Of course, you are going to want to frame it as soon as possible anyways.

The canvas prints will be shipped with 1" stretcher bars. ( see Canvas Prints for examples ) If you would like your canvas print shipped / rolled you can make arrangements with us. If you are ordering from outside of the contiguous 48 this might be an option to keep shipping prices affordable.
