The docents from the Cape Cod Museum of Art will be featuring 274 women artists in their Permanent Collection. This is significant because women have been historically under -represented in museum collections throughout the world. The CCMoA Docents have researched and written wall texts to accompany each piece celebrating the artistic merits of regionally significant women artists in the collection and describing intent and techniques.

OPENING RECEPTION: THURSDAY, MARCH 6 th 4-6:30.

This piece, was painted from direct observation in my studio using Handschy lithographic inks, brushes and rollers on a plexiglass plate. After the painting was completed, it was placed on the bed of my printing press. Arches 88 printmaking paper was placed over the painting and, with the pressure of the press, the image was transferred from the plate to the paper. The process has roots in the Renaissance and was used by early 20th century artists like Degas and Monet to name a few. This print after some 20 years, remains as fresh as the day it was pulled. Only one image is made. The monotype is a “one of a kind unique print”. My technique was to paint the interior of my studio as is, without pre-arranging and was the first of many “Happenstances” to follow.

UPCOMING: solo exhibition
