Series Summary
Collecting fine art has historically been a hobby for the upper class. However, giclee art reproduction printing has made fine art more accessible to a broader audience. The term was coined by printmaker Jack Duganne to label any inkjet-based digital print used as fine art. The word “giclee” is derived from a French term meaning “to squirt, spurt, or spray,” as in spraying ink through a printer nozzle. This process has made it possible to create nearly identical art reproductions on less expensive materials, allowing more people to purchase and collect artwork. Giclees that are printed on canvas must be stretched over stretcher bars before completion. Learn exactly what you need to stretch your own canvas in this free instructional giclee video series. You will find out which tools you will need, how to protect your canvas, and how to create finishing touches that make your work stand out.
