about the artist
My drawings, paintings, prints, and artist's books have been exhibited both nationally and internationally. I have published 3 limited edition artists' books, Arachne/Amaranth, 23 Eggs, and Passages: Understood and Agreed. Arachne/Amaranth was partially funded with a National Endowment for the Arts grant and 23 Eggs was partially funded by a grant from Pyramid Atlantic, Silver Spring, MD. My artist's books are in the collection of the Museum of Modern Art (New York), the Museum of Contemporary Art (Chicago), and the National Museum of Women in the Arts (Washington, DC). Arachne/Amaranth is included in The Century of Artists' Books, Johanna Drucker, Granary Books, 1995, pp. 136-37, photo page 136.

My career began with a BA degree with Honors in Sculpture from the College of William and Mary (Virginia) and, in 2004, I completed an MA degree in K-12 Art Education from Catholic University (Washington, DC). I have studied classical drawing techniques with Robert Liberaci; watercolor painting with Gwendolyn C. Bragg and Carolyn Grosse Gawarecki and in workshops with Stephen Quiller, Cheng-Khee Chee, and Carl Schmalz; and plein air oil painting with Chris Groves. I have also spent 30 years working as a graphic designer and illustrator. To see my commercial work go to www.jwdesignarts.com.
