Gicl'ee Printing became a part of our services when the owner and artist Jimmy D. McDonald started searching for companies to make copies of his original artwork. "I spent 3 years trying out different companies and numerous hours researching and learning about the process." As a veteran sign-maker, printing has been in our business for years, technology has changed the way we do it. "I wanted to find a printer that could serve the sign business and most importantly provide the highest quality fine art prints available. There are a lot of printers out there... going to trade shows and contacting researchers that test the different equipment - helped and I finally settled on purchasing the same equipment that the Chicago Museum of Fine Art uses." Printmaking is fun and It's a joy providing a service that helps other people market their work. What started out as a way to market my own work has turn into another way to help others in their own passions.
