The winking owl painting, "Winking." ABOUT ME My name is Lizzie Beckerley from the Sulky Cow Gallery in the UK. I am a Welsh artist and my passion is painting happy, whimsical, quirky pictures, usually of animals. ABOUT THE PAINTING Here are high quality giclee prints, taken from my original oil painting of my owl painting, "Winking." As soon as I saw this beautiful, winking owl, I knew I had to paint it. Thank you wildlife photographer Steve Ditheridge for providing me with the gorgeous reference photo. This winking owl print wold make the perfect gift for any owl lover. PAPER PRINTS My winking owl paper giclee prints come just as they are, unframed. They are printed onto our premium quality fine art paper. They come in a choice of two sizes, 5 x 7 inches and 8 x 10 inches. We have specifically chosen these measurements as there is such a wide choice of beautiful frames to chose from in these sizes. After we have printed our giclee paper prints, we leave them to dry for 8 hours and then we protect them with a matte varnish. CANVAS PRINTS If you'd like my winking owl painting as a canvas print, please see my other listing. WHAT IS GICLEE? Giclee (pronounced je-clay) is a type of very high quality printing ink. Giclee comes from the French word "gicler" to squirt. The lightfast inks, which are acid free and lightfast, are sprayed onto the paper. It is believed that this process achieves the closest match technically possible to the original piece of artwork. Giclee prints use inkjet technology and are far more sophisticated than your normal desktop printer. Giclee prints are known for their longevity and are the choice of art galleries, museums and collectors.
