GICLÉE ART REPRODUCTIONS

It's possible to order giclée prints from my paintings.
Giclée (pronounced "chicklee") prints are colour reproductions printed with seven colours, the prints are of highest possible quality. The prints are made with artist quality paint on canvas or water colour paper and are better both in colour and durability compared to other more traditional methods of art reproduction (such as lithographs and offset prints). A reproduction of this kind is so good that it takes a trained eye to see that it actually is a print and not a painting. The future investment value will probably end up somewhat higher than lithographs depending on how many prints that are in circulation.

So, if you wish to honour your walls and improve your surrounding's chi with my art then this is an alternative to consider seriously if you:

• ...need several paintings with the same motif. No order is too small or too large. Since the master copy does not wear down any amount of prints can be made, a good idea if you want price-worthy art for your company, hotel, bar or restaurant. Considering the originality of my art this would make a much better impression than if you would buy uninspired mass-produced paintings from some art factory - besides, this would probably cost you less; the price tag for one of these prints which might last hundreds of years is lower than what some interior decoration firms charge to rent you a painting for a year.
• ...thinks the original painting is too expensive or has the wrong size. Sizes from postcard sizes up to 106 X 250 centimetres (42 x 99") can be printed. Since my paintings are very sharp and wealthy in detail there's no problem to make maximum size prints from the smallest of my originals.
• ...if you are looking for an exclusive present or gift for one or many people, an alternative to the gold watch.
• ...want to select the painting's frame yourself or rather would prefer my paintings on canvas. My original paintings are all painted on wood and has built in black frames. If this does not suit you then this is the opportunity to make your own choice. (I do recommend black frames for my art though,)
• ...own one or more of my original paintings and want to make "safety copies" of them.

What differ these prints in quality and visually from the originals are amongst other things that the prints besides the texture from the canvas and varnishing are completely smooth, there's no texture from brush strokes and similar things and the visual effects in the original emanating from several opaque and transparent layers of paint is less apparent in the prints. Some people though think the prints make a "cleaner" expression than the originals. More noticeable is that the gilding of the originals are not present. If you wish I can embellish the prints by hand.
I varnish the prints with gloss varnish and put my special print seal on them. This seal is in some cases the only thing that makes it easy to spot the difference between prints and originals.
All prints are numbered and comes with signed authenticity certificates.

The numbers in the middle of the seal are, from the top, the year the print was made, below this the print's serial number. Generally the lower this number is the higher the future value to the collector becomes.

Embellishing: 1000:- (€110 / $110), regardless of size.
Mounted on an inner frame: 500:- (€55 / $55), regardless of size.
Framing: Starts from aprox. 600:- (€66 / $66)
