Giclee Paintings
 
‘Giclee’ is pronounced ‘zhee-clay’  which is a French word to describe the technology involved in replicating a direct copy onto canvas of the painted original as a high resolution copy.

My giclees are museum quality works done in archival inks on top quality canvas and can be ordered on a stretched frame or tube rolled.   This high quality format is quite difficult to tell from the original and it is interesting to note that museums and galleries around the world use giclees of many famous works to display to the public because of the value, fragility and security involved in the showing of some originals.  These giclees are protected with a unique finishing spray protecting the ink and surface from damage.

In order for these paintings to be enjoyed by as many people as possible, I prefer to supply giclees instead of the original painting as these works are such a high standard. It also means that much more care and attention can be taken with the original as the artist can concentrate solely on the quality.
 
I hope that my artworks will bring back fond memories for these drivers and their achievements. Most of these famous men lost their lives pursuing their passion for motor racing. I survived two horrific accidents on the race track and hope my passion for the sport is reflected in my works offered on this site.
