Rainbow Ross
Visual Arts: Printmaking
_____________The Candid_____________
I’m an artist who is often found drinking a nice cup of tea inbetween, carving & printing, blogging & researching, plotting & planning projects all while meandering in my mind about infinite possibilities and the orbiting perplexity of things. . .
Not so long ago, I wrapped up an internship at the Pont Aven School of Contemporary Art in Pont-Aven, France and spent a few months back in the good ole’ U.S. of A exploring the beauty of the Pacific Northwest. Now I find myself re-acclimating to American life after finishing a year long teaching gig in South Korea followed by a short stint at an art residency in India. With a BFA under my belt, a love of making art, and some super amazing cultural exchanges taking place; whatever will come next?
