ArtTalk – The Layers of Chee Bravo
Artist Chee Bravo exactingly builds up layers of color to create energetic, motion-filled prints of musicians playing. Her carefully planned work nevertheless conveys a sense of carefree action. You can almost hear the music. Chee will show us her process for creating her many-layered screen prints.
But the layers aren’t just in Chee’s printing process. Her’s is a very personal body of work that stems from her life experiences. The people who populate her prints are friends from her favorite jazz club in Trenton. We’ll take a look at Chee’s paintings of the people she met on a trip to her husband’s native Cuba, paintings filled with all the character, color and energy of her screen prints. Join us as we explore the layers of Chee Bravo’s work.
Congratulations to Chee Bravo on being awarded a grant from the New Jersey State Art Council’s Individual Artist Fellowship program! Read More!
