Marianne Skjelbred, who graduated as a photographer in 1997, modifies photographs of her acrylic paintings in a digital process (D.G.A), and the data file is to be considered the pressure plate. In addition to adding colors and light in the digital process, Marianne Skjelbred fine-draws and refines areas in the digitalized pictures. Each D.G.A print is considered an original on par with other graphic works.

Giclée (Giclée Fine Art Print) is the designation for how the print itself is produced. The French word giclée (zhee-klay) is a feminine noun that means a spray or a spurt of liquid. The quality of the giclée print rivals traditional silver-halide and gelatin printing processes and is commonly found in museums and art galleries. The process involves squirting microscopic dots of pigment-based ink onto high quality art paper.

The super matt finish of Hahnemüle Photorag gives even color and excellent detail. The surface has minimal texture with a chalky smooth cotton feel which creates smooth color gradients.

If you buy a print you may pay via Klarna or PayPal (VISA, MasterCard or American Express). You will receive an e-invoice if you buy a painting from Marianne Skjelbred.
