Giclee Print/Limited Edition
Giclee printing, the term refers to a digitally produced, high-resolution reproduction of an original work of art. A digital scan or photograph is taken of the existing artwork, which is then individually printed on canvas or fine art paper using a special large-format ink-jet printer. This printmaking process uses tiny droplets of archival-pigmented ink to create prints that cannot be duplicated by other printing techniques. Because there is no visible dot screen pattern, the resulting image has all the subtle tonalities of the original art. Thus, a giclee is considered the closest thing you can get to the original.

About the Artist:

Born and raised in Turkey, Nihal started drawing and painting at a young age. Over her prolific past fifteen years, Nihal has amassed a body of over 700 paintings. She has exhibited nationally and internationally in over 150 shows. Nihal lives and works at NoMA NE Washington DC.

Nihal works in acrylic, oil, and pastel on a large scale. Creating a pastiche of light and shadow, Nihal often uses just a palette knife to apply paint to the canvas. She depicts a delicate but boldly expressive interplay between analysis and emotion, concealing and revealing her subject at once. Whether painting whirling dervishes, dramatic landscapes, or impressionistic figures, Nihal masks the known with the unknown and explores the transcendental.

"Through my intuitive painting process, I have learned self-transcendence In some ways knowing is the opposite of creativity, which can only come from not knowing. Each white canvas invites me to stretch my sense of wonder, and the painting process starts with, 'what if...'"
