Jean Chemay holds a BFA from Pratt Institute, and a 25 year hiatus from
painting while working in the tv and film industry and raising a
daughter. Since her return to painting last year, (still with the crazy
job and the wonderful daughter) she has studied with Karen O'Neil at the
Art Students League and with Peggi Kroll Roberts.
She's a member of the
Ossining Arts Council and the Greenwich Art Society. Her work has shown
in the Pratt Gallery, the NYC Parks Commissioner's office,
the Ossining
Public Library and The Art Barn Gallery.
Brigitte Bley-Swinston: I grew up in Germany and studied art education and art history in Berlin, and later painting and drawing at the
Art Student League and the National Academy of Design in New York City.
I have worked in adult education for many years, developing art programs for teachers, as well as supporting non-artists to find their artistic selves.
“When I paint I constantly try to pair down to the essential,
I constantly try to find out what it is the
object wants to tell me.”
I am pleased to have been asked to show my work at
Nathaniel Witherell.
Purchases are to be made through
