 Connie Mosher, Watercolor and Polaroid Transfer Artist ARTIST’S STATEMENT For me, art is a lifelong quest to find ways to express in paint what mesmerizes me visually. What combination of color and light, shapes and spaces, brushstrokes and textures arranged on the canvas, is going to distill my unique visual experience and convey that experience to the viewer. BIOGRAPHY I was always drawing, as a child growing up in the Adirondack Mountains. Every notebook margin and scrap of paper was covered with my drawings. I eventually graduated from SUNY New Paltz with a BS in Art Education and taught art from primary through high school and college. However a growing family of four children, restoring an 1820’s brick farmhouse amid the orchards of Orleans County, and moving with my Biology professor husband, John on his sabbaticals, to places as diverse as Utah, England, and California, claimed all my attention for the next few decades. In 1995 I was drawn to take a painting class at Genesee Community College in Albion and my desire to paint was re kindled! I have since taken many workshops and seminars in various art media. In 2004 I began experimenting with Polaroid Transfers, tiny works of art made by hand-printing Polaroid images on watercolor paper and then painting on them.

I have had solo shows in many local venues, as well as the Main Gallery at Go-Art in Batavia, Starbucks in Pittsford, and Java Junction in Brockport. I continue to both paint in oils and create new Polaroid transfers.
