Jean Ferrier Art
|
Jean Ferrier's art is
inspired by life energy and intelligence of the animals of the
Pacific Northwest. Jean began her professional
artistic career in Seattle in 1975 and is an artist, woodcarver, and
calligrapher with 30 years of studio experience. She specializes in small,
carved animal masks, painted panels, and calligraphic books and paintings and
has taught Northwest Coast Indian formline design through the years.
Jean's handmade books are part of Lemieux Library at Seattle University and
Allen Library of the University of Washington's permanent collection. They were
the Northwest Bookfest Prize winner of 2001.
Jean migrated to the Northwest from New York City, where she was educated in
Medicine and Psychiatry. She obtained her artistic education informally through
her exposure to Northwest Coast Indian Art.
Her artwork is exhibited in galleries in Seattle and Alaska. |
