Dawn’s work begins before an image. Narratives and aesthetic visions originate from first-hand observations evolving into sketches. As the artistic process is set in motion, experiments in technique and medium create a momentum of possibilities to consider.
In relief carvings, negative and positive spaces between layers of colors build texture, form and meaning. The process invites the medium to speak creating a unique dialog for the artist to respond to throughout. Sometimes visually teetering on the cusp of abstraction, Dawn creates an image to consider, internalize, and re-visit.
Dawn has exhibited across the USA and Europe and has been granted several awards for her work. She is an active member of The Center for Contemporary Printmaking (Connecticut, USA) and Mamaroneck Artist’s Guild (New York, USA).
