DSCN7482 by Sylvie Demers 18x18-Inch Canvas Wall Art

This ready to hang, gallery-wrapped art piece features a colorful abstract arrangement of watercolor drips and leaves. Sylvie has always been mesmerized by color. Her world is light and full of happy surprises. Living in the Greater Montreal area of Canada, she has illustrated multiple book covers for the Presses de l'Universite du Quebec. In 2011 she joined the COLOUR lovers community and ever since has been designing pattern templates that are youthful and fresh. In 2012 she won the Gelaskins "Become Our New Artist" contest. Watercolor and acrylic paints help her to express her optimism and inner spontaneity. She enjoys learning new techniques and exploring her creativity. 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.
