This piece was inspired by my morning walks through my neighborhood this past spring. I would amble along the paths early in the morning while the air was still crisp and the blooms were turning their faces towards the morning sun.

Description

Giclée (pronounced zhee-clay) is a French word which means “spraying of ink”. In this high-tech computer reproduction process, a fine layer of ink—more than four million droplets per second—is sprayed onto archival watercolor paper or canvas.  Each droplet is four times smaller than a human hair.

The first part of the process includes making a very high-resolution scan from Heidi’s original work. Then, the ink is applied to produce a combination of 512 chromatic changes with approximately 10 million color possibilities of highly saturated, nontoxic water-based ink.

This combination of high-resolution scanning and digital printing gives each image the vibrant and luminous results of an original watercolor—resulting in a print that can be difficult to distinguish from the original.

Each giclée print is protected by applying an extra strength UV coating to insure museum quality. The limited edition is individually hand-signed and numbered by the artist and is accompanied by a certificate of authenticity.
