Duerrstein has always drawn. His passion for art led him to his first job as art director for Walt Disney Consumer Products that spanned more than two decades. At Disney, Duerrstein used his talent in many diverse ways, developing his own unique style that is prevalent in his paintings and graphic work today. After leaving Disney Studios and inspired by contemporary artists such as Keith Haring, Andy Warhol and David Hockney, he has created many stylistic interpretations of Disney and Warner Bros. characters that are highly sought after by collectors world-wide. "A Friend in Need" 20 x 20 limited edition giclee on canvas signed by Dick Duerrstein. A giclee (pronounced zhee-CLAY) is an individually produced, limited edition, high quality reproduction done on a special large format printer. Images are generated from high-resolution digital scans and printed with archival quality inks.
Giclee prints can be printed on a number of different media – watercolors can be reproduced on watercolor paper, for instance, and can be so color-true that they are virtually indistinguishable from the original. Oil paintings can be reproduced on canvas.
The giclee printing process provides better color accuracy than any other means of reproduction. The colors are brighter, last longer, and are so high-resolution that they are virtually continuous in tone, rather than tiny dots.
