I am a contemporary mixed-media artist who works from my studio near Santa Fe, New Mexico, on the edge of the Galisteo Basin. I am interested in printmaking, painting, photography, and encaustic and often combine these mediums. Usually my work is a collage of a variety of materials. Monotypes, monoprints, photos, drawing and transfers are collaged onto paper or panel and then paint or encaustic may be added. A former graphic designer, I took up printmaking and painting in 1987. I studied painting at the San Francisco Art Institute from 1993 to 1997, and printmaking through many workshops both locally and abroad, including a month long printmaking workshop at Santa Reparata Studios in Florence, Italy in 1998, and a variety of workshops at Kala Art Institute in Berkeley, California. In Santa Fe, I have taken workshops from Dan Weldon in solar plate making, Ron Pokrasso in collage/printmaking, Judy Just in Akua water base printmaking and digital photography at Santa Fe Workshops. I am a juried member of the California Society of Printmakers, The Los Angeles Printmakers, and The Boston Printmakers. My work has been included in many regional and national juried exhibits. I am represented by ViVO contemporary, Santa Fe, NM. |
