| Anne Belov has been painting and drawing for more
than 25 years. She received her BFA from Philadelphia College of Art (now University
of the Arts) in Philadelphia, PA and her MFA from the University of Washington. Her
work is in many collections and has been exhibited in Alaska, California, Massachusetts,
New Jersey, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Washington D.C. and Washington State. Her work has
been featured in "American Artist Magazine" in 1988, 1990, 1993 and 1995.
Anne Belov states, "My objective is to create a sense of
place and time through light, color, composition, and relationships between objects.
My work contains both still life and landscape images, sometimes in the same
painting.
"I was attracted to the art of etching by my
love of drawing, and the line illustrations of an earlier era. Building my
compositions through line, texture and tonalities satisfies an impulse that is different
than painting with acrylics or watercolors. It is my sincere belief that different
media and techniques feed each other, and that I bring things to etching from my
paintings, and then back again to printmaking." |
