       Artist Statement

Paula DeSimone, artist, author and educator is a graduate of Massachusetts College of Art. DeSimone’s work was selected for exhibition in Craft USA, 2009, National Triennial. She has taught at RISD, CE, Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, Fuller Craft Museum, DeCordova Museum and the Attleboro Arts Museum. Her work is held in prestigious hospital and corporate collections as well as private collections internationally. She is represented by L’attitude Gallery, Newbury St., Boson, MA.

The exploration of spatial relationships through layers of rich transparent colors rendering the effects of depth and illumination best describes the visual characteristics of my work. Monotype allows me to draw from my painting and color and design experience while exploring new methods of creative problem solving. In my monoprints, the viewer explores through a visual journey, layers of textural effects while the underlying theme is unfolded. Striking a balance between intuitiveness and an intellectual response to the printmaking process is of itself a work in progress. I continue to be courted by the monotype process and look forward to each printmaking session as a new experience with elements of surprise.
