Overview
Report
We only employ the industry standard Epson Surecolor P10000 and 11880 printers with eight-color Epson UltraChrome K3 with Vivid Magenta pigment which remains stable for over 200 years (by study of Wilhelm Research Institute).
Pigment printing refers to the use of pigments in various states to achieve brilliant and long lasting work.
Artists have painted with pigments for centuries with the purpose of creating fade resistant and saturated, thick colors.
Digital pigment printing uses archival brand name papers, canvas and inks.
Proofing & Setup
Report
In case there is no original art work available; the file is sent to us and opened and tested for color, resolution and shadow/highlight information.
We do not retouch, color correct or resize any image provided for giclee printing unless requested by the client.
In both cases, the proofs are printed on the final output substrate i.e.
Giclee Media
Report
Watercolor, pastel artists and photographers alike have discovered the beauty and marketability of fine art paper giclees (also called watercolor paper giclees).
Rich, saturated colors; deep dark tones and finely nuanced light tones; and the look and feel of an actual watercolor or pastel painting.
The possibilities for fine art paper giclees are endless.
Kolibri Art Studio is able to offer you many additional possibilities not otherwise available from other giclee printers.
We finish our gicles (even the proofs) with a one-of-a-kind serigraph press process UV varnish, the same ones applied on serigraph editions (gloss, satin or matte) when appropriate and to provide longevity and deeper colors.
