About the Artist

ARTIST STATEMENT


Making art is autobiographical.  At an early age I learned to draw, sew, and use power tools, which resulted in creating items from wood and fabric.  Ideas for my creations mainly stem my childhood experiences. I design, hand cut and paint wooden puzzles in the shape of various animals.  As a child, I had a large collection of stuffed animals and from this collection my puzzle shapes are born.  I also sew accompanying reversible drawstring bags to house the puzzles when not in use.

Patricia Romeo Jammalo is a painter, printmaker, woodworker, 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 creations primarily develop through process, intuition, and play with the goal of creating art that expresses her personal vision.
