All tagged Rita Schoonmaker
Rita Schoonmaker’s work is an important contribution to the contemporary art scene, not only for its aesthetic qualities but also for its philosophical depth. At a time when abstraction often risks becoming formulaic, Schoonmaker’s work feels fresh and deeply personal. Her commitment to exploration and her refusal to settle into a single style or theme ensure that her work remains dynamic and engaging.
My creative exploration began in earnest through the full-time pursuit of a BFA during 1972-1976, fortuitously, an exciting and remarkable point in time. After graduating from the University of Nevada, Las Vegas, I continued to create and show locally while working in related creative fields.
Always forward-looking, I typically test related forms of expression and mediums in the pursuit of inspiration. That being said, my current work reflects a journey marked by flowing lines and color relationships expressing observations made of the less tangible through acrylics on high quality papers.
