Miguel's Color Service reproduces fine art. Utilizing the latest technology to make museum quality giclée prints on a variety of archival papers and canvas.
What is Giclée?
Giclée is the worlds most advanced print making process and the best technique for reproducing original art and fine art photography. This process uses computers to precisely control digital printers which squirt or spray inks in extremely fine droplets at a very high resolution. The result is essentially a continuous tone print showing every color and nuance. Giclée prints look and feel like the original art. Prints are made using watercolor papers and canvas. Using archival inks, prints can last 100 years or more. Another great advantage is you can print on demand. Print only what you need. It's affordable and you can increase your sales, have quality prints available, and still sell you original paintings.
