After teaching himself to paint and studying European landscapes, he became a full-time landscape painter by 1820. The scenes Doughty depicted were typically seascapes, rivers, or lakes classicaly framed by trees or majestic mountains. When he painted signs of civilization and people, he incorporated them harmoniously into the landscape. </p> <p>Giclee (jee-clay) is an advanced printmaking process for creating high quality fine art reproductions. The attainable excellence that Giclee printmaking affords makes the reproduction virtually indistinguishable from the original piece. The result is wide acceptance of Giclee by galleries, museums, and private collectors. Gallery wrap is a method of stretching an artist's canvas so that the canvas wraps around the sides and is secured a hidden, wooden frame. This method of stretching and preparing a canvas allows for a frameless presentation of the finished painting.</p>
