Linda Schreibman
has been creating photographic images for 25 years. After completing studies
at University of Maryland and Miami Dade College, she worked as a commercial
photographer in the entertainment and corporate industries, with clients
including ABC-TV, NBC-TV, The Academy of Motion Pictures Arts & Sciences
(The Academy Awards Show), The Academy of Recording Arts & Sciences (The
Grammy Show), Dick Clark Productions, McDonald’s Corporation, Niagara
Corporation and many others.
For the past 15 years,
she has concentrated on fine art photography, and her work is now included
in numerous corporate and private collections. In 1999, she began publishing
her own work as unique fine art Giglée (also spelled “giclee”) prints.
What is a Giglée?
A Giglée (pronounced jhee-clay),
from the
French verb gicler meaning
“to spray ink,” is a
fine art print an artist creates with digital output on an inkjet printer.
Digital printers uses nozzles to spray ink onto a substrate, usually fine
art papers.
and then finished and enhanced with hand applied inks, dyes, and pastels.
WHAT MAKES LINDA Schreibman’s GIGLEE’S DIFFERENT?
Often, artists will scan an original painting, then print an edition of the
image as Giglée prints, much as painters used serigraph or lithographs to
produce editions of original paintings. These prints are considered
reproductions, since the original is in another media.
Linda Schreibman’s giglées are all from her original photographic images and
exist in no other media then these fine giclée prints which she handcrafts
in her San Francisco studio. All of her prints are on archival art papers,
using archival inks. Each print is produced individually, on the highest
quality art papers such as Somerset Velvet Fine Art Paper or Hahnemuhle
Torchon Parchment Fine Art Paper. Each image is also uniquely hand-colored
using dyes, inks, pastels and/or pencils. Prints are then hand-signed and
numbered with editions no larger then 25.
