Women & Self-Portraiture article

I recently discovered that I'm included in an interesting article on women and self-portraiture that came out last month: http://portraitsocietyceciliabeauxforum.blogspot.com/2014/11/our-portraits-our-selvesthe-classic.html?spref=fb  I'd been interviewed (by email) and then forgot about it, so a nice surprise.

In my portion of the interview I discuss my head covering project, actually for the first time in print. And I was also surprised and pleased to see that the writer gave a big shout out to Women in the Act of Painting, which I appreciate!

Triple Identity

I am mentioned in an interesting article written by Judy Takacs Pendergast for the Cecilia Beaux Forum blog: Triple Identity  The piece appeared on July 7, 2014.

Article in Fine Art Connoisseur

I was privileged to speak with Linda Lee Alter a few months back about her incredible collection of art by women, which she recently gifted to the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts.  PAFA is celebrating this enormous and important donation with an exhibition (opening tonight!) which they call The Female Gaze: women artists making their world. I was thrilled that my editor at Fine Art Connoisseur allowed me to write on this topic which is so dear to my heart and even gave the piece what looks to me something like ☆star billing☆ in the magazine. Five pages, right in the middle! Aaah. Of course, Ms. Alter's genius was the spirit behind it, and the art speaks for itself, but here's what I wrote:

Many thanks also to Robert Cozzolino, the senior curator at PAFA, for sharing his insights with me!
