Nancy Stella Galianos

Nancy Stella Galianos is a painter whose work is divided into three main spheres: landscape, floral composition and abstract expressionism. Interested by the visual arts from a very young age, she favors acrylic and, more recently, pastels. 

Her exploration of abstraction led her to create works of large, medium and small formats, whose spontaneity is exemplary. Inspired and even supported by music, whether classical music or jazz, she sets her pace on the canvas in an explosion of colors spread with great mastery. This approach allows her to release various emotions without control or preconceived ideas, in the manner of the Automatists. Borduas, Riopelle and Ferron are some of the important models in her conception of art. 

As a fervent traveler, Galianos uses pastel and watercolors as her material for it is easier to transport. This is how she focuses on reproducing small natural scenes of landscapes and seascapes. Also, floral exploration has been gaining more attention in her creation. In spite of the figurative aspect of these works, one finds there is always the same energy and spontaneity as well as the great control of the colors.
