Vita / Lebenslauf:
It can often be difficult to explain something visual in words…. I’m curious about everything…..My art is a journey…. I go out to explore, I see, I get inspired, I expose my feelings…. Pleasures of paint came early to me...Classes and the first few years were of exploration; then came originality and self expression...I realized a painting could stop the sun from setting... My vocabulary of grid based paintings is much more than a device... They are of form and color…The finished never resembles the original… I love a playful approach and will try alternative techniques exhausting use of color and pattern… Having worked with grids and their lines for some time now, I try to remain true to their constraints...except for the times when they decide to break out to the point of abstraction....
Naomee was born and still lives in New York and considers herself a true New Yorker. Her dad was a sign painter and she remembers, at an early age, watching him put alphabet on paper with a ruler in one hand and a brush in the other…. always using primary colors.
As a youngster, she won an award from the United Nations for participating in an elementary school art contest for the cover of a song book. She knew then she would always do art.…. She attended the Art Students League in New York in the early sixties and later The School of Visual Arts in New York, dabbling in graphic design. A piece she completed called “Once Upon a September Day” was accepted into the LaGuadia Atrium, Long Island City show – MNEMONIC: A 9/11 Memorial Exhibition. She has always been attracted to graphics as an art form and during the past six years has found her comfort zone doing abstract geometric pieces. She has a second home in St. Petersburg, Florida where she spends part of her days absorbed in her art. Her work has been shown in group exhibitions in New York as well as galleries in Coral Gables.. Tampa.. St. Petersburg, Florida and New Orleans.
