About the artist
Nina’s Biography
Born — Los Angeles, CA
MFA — University of California, Santa Barbara
BA — College of Creative Studies, University of California, Santa Barbara
Associate Professor, Art Department, Santa Barbara City College, 1987–2012, teaching drawing, figure drawing, 2D design, oil painting, watercolor, and artist books. Served as Art Department Chair and Director of the Atkinson Gallery, as well as co-director of Study Abroad programs to Florence, Italy, and the former Soviet Union.
She has lived and worked as an artist in Santa Barbara since 1973. Over the years she has been involved in the arts community of Santa Barbara in many capacities, including serving on boards of local art institutions and groups, jurying exhibitions for various artist groups, participating in public panel talks, and teaching painting workshops.
In 2012, she retired after 25 years of full-time teaching and has devoted much of her time to painting, drawing, and printmaking. Plein air painting is a large part of her work — she enjoys the challenge of working outdoors and capturing the sense of a scene. She also works with still life, the figure, and larger studio paintings.
Her work has been exhibited widely, locally and throughout the U.S. In the past three years, she has shown work in the Atkinson Gallery, Faulkner Gallery, Elverhøj Museum, Wildling Museum of Art and Nature, Westmont/Ridley-Tree Museum, Channing-Peake Gallery, VITA Art Center, Casa Gallery, Palm Loft Gallery, Sullivan Goss Gallery, the Architectural Foundation of Santa Barbara, Santa Paula Art Museum, the SCAPE group at various venues, and Santa Barbara City Hall Gallery.
She is a member of SCAPE and the California Art Club.
