Filippo Cardu is a self-taught visual artist/illustrator based in Italy. His work consists mainly of heavily detailed, highly decorative pen and ink illustrations with nature as his subject of choice. He tries to apply his particular visual language to whatever he works on, drawing from medieval ornament, Chinese traditional illustration, and even calligraphy for inspiration. This combination translates into a style that consists of multiple patterns and different types of line- and dot-work.





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.
