*Giclee (pronounced (jee-clay): is a digital reproduction of extremely high resolution (circa 6,000 dpi,dots per inch) making reproductions nearly identical to original to the naked eye. Huge drum or flatbed scanners are used to scan the original canvases and technicians match color tones precisely to the original. Giclee is internationally accepted as the museum standard.
“My mother, Margaret Traylor Dunham-Griggs (1925-2007) was a lifelong ardent painter. She drew on Nature for her inspiration and often worked on canvases for years, several at a time. She left behind thousands of artworks, now in the possession of my sister,
Margaret D. Wille, Hawaii. Email: margaretwille@mac.com All the works have been Giclee reproduced. I place here a few
samples of her works.” –her son, Thomas Ward McCain
PHOTOS LEFT TOP TO BOTTOM:
1)my mother around age 20 I think during WWII
when she served as a hospital administrator and
picking potatoes in Maine. Here I think this is her parents’ car broken down. 2) At the time of her marriage to my father Eugene McCain. 3) Age 45 I think when she visited a South American Indian tribe with her second husband Maitland Griggs. The chief of the village painted my mother’s face. 4) At age 80 in Nikko, Japan,
visiting this Shinto temple town where I lived on and off for years.
