A Giclee (pronounced Jee-clay) is a high quality, pigment process that was developed in the late 1990's.  The pigments are applied in microscopic dots to just about any substrate.  Crittenden Studio uses this process to reproduce original paintings that result in a high quality canvas or paper print that has the look and feel of the original painting.  The Giclee process can be used on canvas or high quality art papers, and all have a permanency and stability that will last 75 - 100 years without any noticeable fading.  All of the reproductions have a "limited" edition size.  Most edition sizes are under 200 prints, maintaining a high market value and increasing collectibility.
