À propos

Margery Gosnell-Qua received an MFA in Painting and an MS in Art History from Pratt Institute in 1996, where she traveled to Italy to study Painting in Tuscany and Art History in Venice.

Ms. Gosnell-Qua works between representation and abstraction, uncovering visual equivalents to memories comprised of sensations of sight, sound, smell, touch and taste. Ms. Gosnell-Qua begins her artistic process by creating small color studies from life, an information gathering stage in which she records compositions and colored light. In her successive studio works, the artist pares down her subject to essential forms.

Ms. Gosnell-Qua’s paintings are in private collections in the US and in Europe. She is a recipient of the NYFA Special Opportunities Stipend (2010) and a NYFA Mark09 participant. She received the “Long Island Artist Award,” (2001) at the Heckscher Art Museum in Huntington, NY.
