Monoprints
I have been making art in one medium
or another since I was very young. My formal training began
when I was 13, in the famous Saturday morning Life Drawing
class at the Art Studen't League in NYC. I continued
exploring my passion for art , attending the HS of Music
and Art and majoring in fine art at Hunter College.
Although I have worked in many different
mediums over the years, my primary focus has been printmaking,
specifically monotypes. I have found that monotypes are particulary
well suited to my passion for workiing representaionally
and in a manner that emphasizes spontaneity, immediacy
and invention. My primary interest is people, especially
their innermost thoughts, feelings and emotions. These themes
provide me with endless possibilities that I can express
with color, line and form; all the imagery that has fascinated
me most of my life.
My work is in several collections,
both local and across the country. In 2010, I had two pieces included in the Triton Museum Statewide Drawing and Print Competition and Exhibition. My prints have been
included in the Pacific Print show on two occasions. I
am also a proud co-founder of Clean Slate Press, a cooperative
printmaker's studio at Transport Street in Palo Alto.
