If I have reproduced my painting onto a canvas have I got a giclee?
Mike:

A Giclee is a term for any fine art print that is printed using archivally treated pigmented inks. I print my giclees on watercolor paper and have done one or two on canvas paper as well. The surface is not really what makes it a giclee - it's the inks.
