ABOUT THE GICLEE PRINTS

Fine art prints are museum quality, original, and hand signed by Michele Zualek. Each original piece of art is reproduced with a professional giclée equipment, utilizing only the finest archival materials and inks. This quality of giclée print is commonly used in museums, art galleries, and photographic collections. Giclée printing is known to be the best quality printing around. The giclée prints are preferred by the galleries and museums for their exceptional longevity and richness of colors. The paper is acid-free and extremely age resistant. Frames are not included as they are for presentation purposes only. Please contact me regarding availability of prints.

We are happy to do custom orders, please contact us if you have any special request.
A custom - commissioned painting is not a reproduction of the any original. It is a original one of a kind new painting. This means that any new painting will always be slightly different in shapes and hues, never identical, especially for Abstract Expressionist Art. Every painting is always one of a kind. 
Processing time for custom orders is normally 4-8 weeks.
