Advantages of Giclee Art Prints

One of the primary advantages to artists and publishers creating Giclee art prints is the control available by manipulation of the digital file. Artists and publishers can use software like photoshop to alter their original images to improve the size, color, tone, clarity and definition.

Also, artists can design or create their own print image completely on a computer using these special designer software programs, thus producing effects that could not be created otherwise.

The cost per Giclee print can be quite high because the paper, ink machinery and specialist time involved are expensive. The machines are very slow often taking an hour to print one print sheet.

However, it should be noted that one of most impressive features of Giclee fine art prints is not only the quality, but also the quantity that is able to be produced.
