Orna Feinstein, based in Houston, Texas, specializes in 3D monoprints
and
other mixed media. Orna's art begins with an observation of
nature, and ends up in an abstract creation. The beauty of nature, its
color, texture, and energy attract and inspire her work. In particular,
Orna finds the tree trunk to be nature's most intriguing object. When
the trunk is sliced horizontally it reveals a repetitive and meditative
pattern of rings. When sliced vertically, it reveals more complex and
puzzling linear and circular patterns. Such duality is a great metaphor
for Orna's creative process. Monoprint,
Orna's favorite media, is a unique process in which one can use a
combination of painting and printmaking techniques. It results in a one
of a kind image and some effects that cannot be achieved in any other
form of art.
