Nancy Green: A Murder of Crows

BIO:
Nancy Green grew up in the suburbs of NYC, attended university in Montreal, lived in Tampa Bay for 40 years, and then finally returned to her Northeastern roots, setting up a home base and studio in funky Manayunk. She has been creating whimsical art since 2020, when she discovered her passion and her voice. Nancy’s work draws inspiration from naive and folk art, as well as her lifelong love of animals.
STATEMENT:
I had a brief romance with pen and ink during my college years, but once I had started to raise a family in the early 1980’s, all thoughts of art flew out the window. Once my kids were relatively self-sufficient, I dived back into the art stream by first making
things with my hands: pottery, leathercraft, handmade books, to name a few. Then in early 2020, when the pandemic began, I seized upon this gift of time to find my art voice, starting with watercolor painting, then fabric collage, and most recently, acrylic painting on canvas, wood panel, and rocks. If a day goes by when I am not creating something, I am not a happy camper. I go to bed each night thinking about my art and wake up in the same frame of mind. I am driven!
