Welcome to gigi art prints

My nickname is Gigi.  I am an artist and a scientist.  I began my career with a handful of pencils and a desire to create art for others.  Most of my works, in the ~ 20 years since my first gift of pastels, have been commissioned.  I now sell note cards and giclee prints of original art.  My passion for drawing resumed in medical school but I quickly learned that my renaissance fantasy of sketching gross anatomical and histological observations were lost to the necessity of the work.

However, art returned again to me, as the expression of emotions without voice: thankfulness for the nurses who trained me;  gratitude for my patients who trust me; hopelessness and resilience in face of suffering; and the pure joy of recovery and healing.  

Each art print I create is made with the highest quality papers and inks that  I can find.  All prints are signed by hand and dated.  They are crafted in small batches.  

Every print also has a story.  

Some of those prints tell stories of strength  ("the Iris"), some share a story of hope ("the orchid"), some share resilience ("the boat"), and some share dreams (the Italian garden). 

My shop also includes note cards and other gifts inspired by my original drawings and paintings. 

I am so happy to share each story with you.

I am a member of the Colored Pencil Society of America (Metro DC chapter) and the Guild of Natural Science Illustrators and have been accepted into various juried art exhibitions.  

My drawings, note cards, and prints are inspired by my passion for art and science. A portion of the proceeds from sales supports local charities. Look for me at art shows near you. 

Thank you for allowing me  to share my art with you and I look forward to seeing you at a conference, art exhibition, or art festival soon!
