"Fine-Arts" prints on paper
It is a process of printing on art paper using very high-quality pigment inks and printed in very high definition. Its level of conservation is exceptional (more than 100 years), its quality, depth, and richness of nuances exceeds the classic photo print on Argentic paper.
Glossy finish
Apart from its exceptional thickness, the fiber paper is composed of an alpha-cellulose base without acid and it is covered with barium sulphate, and a microporous layer absorption enhancing pigments during printing. A pure white color, non-yellowing to light, this paper is especially designed for resistance and aging. It is used by major museums worldwide as it offers excellent resolution, rendering deep and dense colors.

Madame Ching of Ching Shih was een beroemde vrouwelijke piraat tijdens de Qing-dynastie in China (begin 19e eeuw). Ze nam met verve de vloot over van haar gestorven echtgenoot en breidde deze uit tot zo'n 60.000 man. Ze had duidelijke democratische en geemancipeerde gedragscodes: op muiterij en verkrachting (van zowel de vijand als binnen de eigen gelederen) stonden zware straffen en de buit werd eerlijk onder iedereen verdeeld. Hiermee boekte ze enorm succes en verwierf een trouwe aanhang. De Chinese overheid gaf na een decenium van oorlogvoering met Madam Ching haar de verzekering dat ze haar 'zuurverdiende' geld mocht houden en ze niet vervolgd zou worden als ze maar zou stoppen met piraterij want dat kostte China te veel. Ze koos eieren voor haar geld en ging rentenieren.

Mi-Jeanne Blansjaar (1967) studied psychology, followed a part-time course Autonomous (sculpture and painting) at the HKU in Utrecht for a year, but eventually opted for the profession of television program maker (director/editor).
She couldn't let go of being physically creative. painting, sculpture (ceramics), goldsmithing, etc., but in the evenings.
In 2012 she started a creative coaching course and completed it in 2016.
Since 2020 she has happily devoted herself to screen printing.
“ Screen printing is a creative process in which I like to leave things to chance. You can make exactly the same prints with screen printing. I never make exactly the same images. I print unique backgrounds from multiple layers of ink. This creates a deepened fresco-like background, very often I find that background beautiful in itself. I then print an image on the background. I photograph these myself or I use old antique photos. I make different prints of such a photo, but always on a different background, so there is never a second of my screen prints that is almost the same'.
Mi-Jeanne reuses in screen printing her paper (to prevent waste) so the back of a work can simply have a rejected other work on it.
