Jackie Watsky

Jacqueline Watsky lives in upstate New York and has been creating visual images since early childhood. She has worked in a variety of media from oils, acrylics, and watercolor to ceramics and print making. At the age of nine, she attended the Brooklyn Museum Art School to study oil painting. While in high school, she attended New York University painting classes and continued a formal art education at Hunter College, BA in Art, and Brooklyn College, MA in Art.

Jacqueline has taught art at the secondary and college levels and has worked as both a graphic and interior designer. Her recent focus is on her RECONSTRUCTIONS which combine many of the materials she loves to work with such as acrylic paint, pencil drawing, collage, and found objects into flights of fantasy. The ordinary becomes the extraordinary and a new reality is reconstructed for mundane objects.

She is a member of the Colonie Art League and the Upstate Artists Guild. She had a solo show at the Sand Lake Center for the Arts in Averill Park, NY which consisted of twenty eight pieces, most of which were RECONSTRUCTIONS. She has shown at the Petit Muse, Broadway Art Center, as well as other local venues. JAckie's work can be viewed at http://artnsoulinc.com/artists/watsky.htm
