Nancy Moniz Charalambous lives and works in London and worked as a graphic designer for 19 years before turning to painting. She illustrates using oils, inks, or charcoal; she enjoys ink especially for its unpredictability, saying the 'freedom of inks adds to the initial spark of an idea and serendipitously transforms it to life'. Moniz also uses oil sticks, which have the malleability to transform and develop an idea over a longer period of time as opposed to using inks; it is a process that evolves. She draws inspiration from personal experience and observations from everyday life.
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.
