Wendy Chazin
Wendy Chazin, born in New York City, is a graduate of the Boston University School of Fine Arts, the School of Visual Arts in New York City, and Rutgers University in New Jersey. Although she began her artistic career as both a sculptor and painter, by the early 1980s, she concentrated her efforts primarily on painting and lithography. She spent the years from 1980 to 1988 in France, where she established a studio in Marseille in the heart of Provence, and in Japan, where Editions Vision Nouvelles commissioned, exhibited and sold her work. She traveled frequently to Paris, where she created her lithographs. Her harmonious compositions, defined by strong color contrasts, are reminiscent of Matisse and are in the tradition of contemporary French painters who followed him. Chazin currently lives and works in New York City.
