• Kart Race Art provides reproductions of original Kart and F1 racing art by Greg Olsen using the Giclée printing process. A giclee (pronounced "zee-clay") comes from the French word, "fine spray". It is a digital print that is produced by the application of millions of tiny ink droplets sprayed onto fine art paper or canvas. The archival based inks used are specially formulated so that the fine print heads spray droplets at a resolution of 1200 dpi. The media used is also of archival grade and can last from 100 years. The visual quality of the print is extremely high and the color saturation and definition stunning. There are no screens used with this method of reproduction hence there is a smoother look to the final print. The preciseness of the printing along with the depth of color range captures the subtleties and nuances of an original Kart or Formula One Race art image be it water color, oil or acrylic.
