Babbitt STAFF WRITER Springville Museum of Art fans that have fantasized about taking their favorite painting home and hanging it on their living room wall can now have the next best thing. High-quality duplicates of many paintings in the museum's muse-um's permanent collection are now available through a partnership between the museum mu-seum and a Provo company that specializes in the giclee printing process. Using a high resolution digital dig-ital photo of a painting, a gi-' clee (pronounced zhee-klay) is created using a wide format for-mat ink jet printer. The printing print-ing is done on either water-color water-color paper or canvas with remarkable results, said Nancy Nan-cy Crawley, president of FoV Editions in Provo. "Most of the time, you can't tell the difference between the original and the print," Crawley said. Printed using archival-quality ink and paper pa-per or canvas, these giclees will remain in top condition without fading for 75 years or more. A protective coating enhances the image and protects pro-tects it from minor abrasions and moisture. The giclees take on the texture tex-ture of the paper or canvas they're printed on. Because they're made using a high-quality high-quality digital photo of the original painting, the reproduction repro-duction of details in the paintings paint-ings is impressive. You can see the brush strokes, you can see the crackling if it's an old painting," paint-ing," Crawley said. The process also allows the buyer to choose the size of the finished fin-ished product; the giclees can be made smaller than the original piece or enlarged to about double the size of the painting without losing quality- The giclees cost 50 cents per square inch, meaning a ficlee measuring 24 inches y 30 inches would cost $360. The Springville museum receives re-ceives a portion of the money collected from each sale, Crawley said. Each giclee is created as it is ordered.

SMI Nebo School District seeking donations to help new schools The faculty, staff and students are looking forward with great anticipation for their move to the new Maple-1 ton Junior High School. If you have not yet driven by the school, take a look, it's beautiful. The school is located locat-ed at 1200 N. and 400 East in Mapleton. They are eager to start the school year with every opportunity op-portunity for learning and growth for your students. In order to have all the facilities they need, Nebo District is asking for donations from the community to help in two specific areas. The first area of need is for a greenhouse. The students stu-dents will learn the skills and reap the benefits of horticulture horti-culture as they use this new facility. An added benefit anticipated is that the greenhouse will become a fund-raiser in and of itself as students will sell their plants to the public, therefore making the initial investment of $25,000 go even further. The other area of need is equipment for the strength training room. This equipment will provide students with an opportunity to increase their overall health and fitness level as well as to help them prepare for athletic competition. All other junior high schools urthe district currently have similar, facilities that were paid for from a federal PEP Grant whose funds were exhausted before this school was built. The goal is to raise $30,000.to make Mapleton Junior High s equipment comparable to the other schools. Please send your donation to the Nebo Education Foundation, 350 S.
