On Thursday, July 9th, Capers is pleased to welcome back artist Mindi Katzman to the West Seattle Art Walk.
With a BA in Drawing and Printmaking, Katzman graduated from the University of South Florida in 1976. She has completed residencies at Skowhegan School of Painting and Sculpture in Maine and Banff Center for the Arts in Alberta, Canada. She spent one month as resident artist in The Project Room at Tacoma’s Museum of Glass. Katzman’s work is represented in many public collections from Prudential Insurance to Microsoft, and most recently, University of Washington Medical Center.
Katzman’s work is primarily in encaustics, painting on both flat and 3-D surfaces and drawing from colors and energy in both local surroundings and long distance travels. The Koi themed paintings were the result of a trip to Mexico where the rich colors influenced her use of fine line and detail, bringing movement and depth to this body of work. She achieves definition by using a wood burning tool affixed with a traditional calligraphy pen nib.
Join Capers on Thursday, July 9th from 6-9pm for art, beverages, and nibbles.
