Welcome to Althea Peregrine, singular silk painting

Latest Activity

Profile Information

Location:: Raleigh, North Carolina, USA

About Me:: I've felt the need make art since I was a child. I began taking classes in the teen program at The Chicago Art Institute and was awarded a degree from the University of Minnesota in studio art and art history.

My art is drawn from dreams, travel and reading. I find the process of making art simultaneously meditative and spontaneous: touch the paintbrush to silk and watch the color flow; move the images around the collage, draw in details, and the meaning becomes clearer. One piece inspires the next.

Gender:: Gal

I am a/an:: Independent Artist/Designer, Blogger

(Designers only) I create:: My work takes form in mixed media collages, assemblages, and paintings on silk and canvas. I'm always seeking to wed a personal iconography with themes from history.

Step Away from the Easel

This admonishment is often heard in art classrooms to remind students not to overwork a canvas. Stepping back and taking a quiet look can put things back into perspective and keep one from overworking a piece.
