About The Artist
Patricia Romeo is a printmaker and mixed media artist. She studied at the School of the Museum of Fine Arts at Tufts University between 2010 and 2016 subsequently earning a Master of Arts in Teaching in Art Education and a Post Baccalaureate Certificate in Studio Art. Her art is primarily developed through process, intuition, and play with the goal of creating artwork that expresses her personal vocabulary of shape, color and line.
ARTIST STATEMENT
Making art is autobiographical. My art is about my experiences and what inspires me visually. Living in New England has played an important role in my art making. The aesthetics associated with nature—shape, pattern and color—tends to find its way into my art. I create multi-layered monotype prints by using a variety of handmade tools and carved wood blocks. These prints remain as single works of art or become aspects in multi-media collage. The spontaneity and unpredictability of the monotype print making process is exciting and usually results in a one-of-a-kind work of art.
