France-Vaz draws inspiration from the Pre-Raphaelite and Naturalist periods of art\, poetry\, and classic literature\, and film. She combines her strong foundation in life painting with imaginative backgrounds fusing classical with contemporary realism. \nThe artist was born in Brooklyn\, NY and moved to the UWS in Manhattan in 2002 to study portrait and figurative art. She was the recipient of the Rhodes Scholarship Award and earned a BFA from the School of Visual Arts in 3D Computer Animation for Film and Special Effects. \nFrance-Vaz has exhibited at the Dacia Gallery NYC\, Wausau Museum of Contemporary Art\, Museum of Modern European Art for ModPortrait and first round of Figurativas\,  Abend Gallery\, Principle Gallery\, Lovetts Gallery\, Eisele Gallery\, Butler Insitute of Fine Art\, National Arts Club NYC\, and Salmagundi Club NYC. She has had 3 solo shows. Her solo exhibit at DaciaGallery\, NYC will be in October 2023 dates TBA. \nNanci France-Vaz has won  of many notable awards nationally.

Her intent is to combine hope\, spiritual beliefs\, and the human condition. Most of her models are professional musicians\, artists\, actors\, and dancers.  The spiritual\, the mystical\, and the mythical have underlying tones and meanings left for the beholder to ponder and engage psychologically. Having studied film and Stanislavski Method Acting allows for a spiritual connection to her subjects expressing emotion and mood. Her study of lighting and movement\, through acting\, dance\, and theater is the catalyst for creating a still image from a cinematic process.  France-Vaz’s patterns of life express a life experience or moment of thought in time. \nFrance-Vaz has been published in Fine Art Connoisseur Magazine\, ModPortrait 2020/2021\,  American Art Collector\, Southwest Art Magazine\, \, ARC Salon\, International Artists\, Realism Today\, and Leonardo Guide Artelibre 2021\, \nHer paintings and commissions hang in private collections.
