the artist
Diana
majored in Drawing and minored in Art History when she
got her BFA. But her work today has expanded to include
photography (particularly cyanotype photonegative photography),
intaglio etching printmaking, and solvent transfers
(ala Robert Rauschenberg). She enjoys the experimental
and has lots of curiosity about processes. Because of
this fascination, she usually has many projects going
on at once, pulling in different directions. Her website
has many more examples of where this exploration has
taken her. She wants to continue to explore printmaking
processes. Diana always carries a sketchbook with her
wherever she goes. And she loves journaling. She takes
notes, sketches and paints in her journals, especially
when she’s on trips, to preserve the experience. She
even paints watercolor
postcards
to send to friends while in her travels. Diana was one
of the artists who won a YSU Penguin commission last
year. Hers was “Universal Penguin Has Stars in Its Eyes”
and is now outside the YSU Planetarium. She is interested
in freelance illustration projects and fine art commissions.
Her illustrations can be found in “Condensed Matter
and Other States of Mind” (a book of poetry by Doug
Fowler).
