giclee:
a new process recently invented, where the art is created by tiny jets spraying millions of droplets of archival, pigmented inks onto a sheet of fine art, acid free paper or onto cotton canvas. This spray of ink, more that 4 million droplets per second, whirls onto paper spinning on a drum at 250 inches per second. Hence the name giclée is French for "fine spray."

remarque:
hand drawn or painted original art created by the artist of a limited edition as a special part of the edition, adding to the value and allowing for each remarqued piece to have a unique and original flavor. In the case of the Josh Gibson giclee, each one is created with graphite pencil by artist Mark Chiarello
