Schlansky Studio

About

 

Schlansky attended The Arts Students League in NY and received her bachelor's degree from Skidmore College . Later on she received Fine Arts Appraisal Certification to complement her Asian Art business, Rose Court Asian Antiques which she ran for 20 years.


Schlansky purchased and sold art world wide. Her travels and the influence of growing up in an artistic family heightened her awareness of color, proportions and nature. 


Schlansky's dream to paint full time came true in 2008 and she currently works in NYC and Norwalk Ct studios . She exhibits in juried shows and her paintings have been sold to  many private collectors.


Her approach to painting is energetic filled with movement.

Schlansky’s process is spontaneous, not overly strategic or planned.  The strokes are intuitive mark making, blending abstract forms and textures. Many claim she is fearless when she works.

 

Experimenting with various techniques and materials is part of Schlansky's work. She may use acrylic, oil, pastel , tape, molding paste, pastel ground or assorted pencils and markers. 

If she feels the painting is too frenzied she will keep refining it into shaped disorder, balancing structure and freedom simultaneously. The result are paintings with beauty, some chaos and quiet.
