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.

PHOTOS LEFT TOP TO BOTTOM:

  1. 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.
