Current Projects

• Art for Sale
• Past Showings
• SOLD

Right now, I’m brainstorming two matching 8′ x 4′ Masonite panels, one of which is intended to beef up my spring showing at Qliance. As well, I’m working on a 4′ x 3′ Blue/Green Acrylic Masonite panel for sale, and prepping to paint two set pieces for my next show this fall.

I am open to commission work at this time. Please contact courtnee @ gmail.com with interest.

I have been a doodler and part-time artist since childhood, working in many mediums including pencil, charcoal, oil pastel, oil paints, acrylic, and random substances found about my house. I’ve even tinkered in mosaic a bit, and won an art contest while in middle school. I tend to be obsessive about a particular medium for a couple days or weeks, then move on to something else, in a continuing cycle.

I enjoy directing particularly because it often lends me the opportunity to work in many mediums throughout a project.

In general, I would say my most ambitious excursions into the depths of artistic expression revolve around the ritual of preparation and how much of myself I put into my physical works. Most recently I’ve taken to using my blood suspended in acrylic heavy gel in creating my paintings.

City of Seattle

Pacific Northwest Ballet Nutcracker March is an annual public art project benefiting Northwest Center, an organization that provides services for children and adults with disabilities.

In 2005, I decorated “Mono” in mosaic tile, which was positioned in front of the Seattle Sheraton and displayed at McCaw Hall. In 2006, I decorated “Tree” (pictured) which was positioned in front of the federal courthouse, and displayed at Benaroya hall. It’s an honor to have been a part of these projects.

Studio Space

I have recently been blessed with a painting studio to use, which is now out of commission due to a remodeling project. It’s been far too long since I was painting regularly and has a large space with which to work. I’m hoping to find an alternative soon. If you have a studio share set up and are looking to include another artist in your collective, please contact me so we can see how we can help one another.

Neevita Knits and Crafts

I enjoy crafting a lot; mostly knitting, crochet, sewing, and purse and trinket-box decorating. Due to a short attention span for projects, I usually make scarves and fingerless glove sets when I knit, as well as the occasional hat.

While I’ll work with just about any paint there is, I’m a bit of a fiber snob and pretty much refuse to work with anything boring, itchy, or otherwise substandard when manipulating yarn.  When I create with yarn, it is usually due to being inspired by the yarn itself to make something. Not doing so much of it currently, though I’m about due for some new scarvage :)
