RE: [artshow_photo] Re: can I call my prints giclee?

 

It has a negative connotation because for the painting medium, it is
a reproduction. But for the photography medium it's an original
photograph. Problem is painting is considered more of an art form
than photography is, and a lot of shows are run by painters organizations.
