About Giclee Prints
Giclee prints are printed in Scott’s very own digital darkroom using an Epson Stylus Pro 9900 printer using Epson’s UltraChrome inks. This technology rivals the color quality and print color longevity of traditional lab prints by using 10 colors of pigment based inks. The ink is a pigment-based ink as opposed to most ink jet printers today that use dye based inks that fade much faster. Under optimal display conditions, Epson claims the prints will last 75+ years without fading.
About the Prints printed by Scott Thompson
Prints printed by Scott Thompson come un-mounted and un-framed. These prints have an acid free foam board backing for support and are protected with removable clear protective bag. 8”x10” and 11”x14” prints are printed on 100% cotton, fine art paper. The image will be initialed and the border will be titled and signed. 16”x20” prints and larger will be printed on 100% cotton, fine art paper. They are limited edition prints and come numbered, titled, signed, and with a certificate of authenticity. Different print sizes will contain different amounts of the same image due to different cropping ratios.
About the limited edition prints vs. open edition prints
Limited edition prints come in editions of 150 prints per size, per image. For example: “Icicles 1” will have 150- 16”x20” , 150- 20”x30”, and 150- 30”x40” prints produced. After a particular size has reached 150 prints, production of that size will discontinue. Not all images will have a 30”x40” edition available. Open edition sizes will have an unlimited number of prints made. Even after all the limited edition prints are sold out, open edition prints will still be available.
Print color
The color of the prints may not be the exact color they appear to be on your computer monitor. This is because color varies from monitor to monitor. The artist chooses to match the prints as closely as possible to the original transparency, rather than monitor output or any published replications.
Titles
Print titles are merely titles and are in no way intended to be exact descriptions of the image.
