Printing is an art form unto itself...
I offer giclée printing services, specializing in the reproduction of fine art and photography.
Giclée is another term for inkjet prints (derived from a French word meaning to spray), although not all inkjet prints are giclée. A giclée print is made from the highest quality inkjet printers using archival papers and ink for greater longevity, as well as more than double the number of inks compared to a basic four-color CMYK inkjet printer... most noticeably beneficial for reproducing subtle shades of gray in black and white prints.

Photographic Printing…
Digital camera pixels created by a photographer are just the beginning of the process by which decorative art is crafted for your home or business. In addition to making awesome images, I'm also able to put my decades of printing experience to work for you with assisting in your photo printing requirements.
The seemingly endless choices for paper has made the entire process of printing and framing decisions more complicated than ever before. Paper alone is comprised of glossy, matte, luster, satin, metallic, watercolor textured and fine-art papers. Some of which complement certain pictures and interior design features better than others.
And it’s no longer just framed paper prints going up on walls these days. The options for printing on metal and acrylic have grown significantly. Canvas, ceramic tile, architectural glass, fabric, and wallpaper are available… about any material at any size, limited only by your imagination.

The first question I typically hear is: "Can you enlarge your pictures and still get good quality at such a large size?" The simple answer is: Yes. But there are a lot of things to consider in reproducing a digital image for wall murals....
The base image resolution straight out of the camera is one. Making a good sharp image to begin with is another. Some images with dark, noisy shadows don't look so good when enlarged, so some images are better candidates than another. And, finally, every digital image must be "upsized" in terms of its resolution, and there are good ways and bad ways of doing that. So feel free to call and ask questions about your next wall mural project.
Printing on Acrylic, Glass, Metal, Tile, Fabric, etc...
Printing on paper is just the tip of the iceberg. All kinds of thick rigid materials can be printed for decorative art purposes. Acrylic and metal are the most popular.
Consider art for architectural applications:
• glass dividers in a corporate office
• ceramic tile kitchen backsplashes
• bathroom tile walls
• glass shower doors
• acoustical sound dampening fabric

Photographic artwork for your home or business...
Some of my images of dilapidated buildings complement the most elegant and contemporary commercial spaces.
For this home in Snowmass, Colorado, the interior designer selected abstract images that I created by intentionally moving the camera during a long exposure.

Hello Ed:
Thank you so much for working with Valley View Hospital and sharing your talents with our patients and families.
The image is fabulous! Nancy from the GWS framing shop called after you delivered the print and was extremely excited.
I walked over to take a look and shared her joy. Now framed, the image hangs beautifully in our newly renovated Internal Medicine Clinic. A wonderful addition. Your kindness and thoughtfulness in working with us is greatly appreciated.
Thank you,
Alice
