Maureen Krinsley
Trained as a painter, Krinsley combines the media of acrylic paint, photography, computer graphics, pastels and encaustic wax. Her work builds on the associations of memory and experience and has been inspired by travel and impressions of different cultures and landscapes. Her intention is to convey visceral reactions to a particular place. She works in all sizes, from 4×6 inches to 5 foot canvases, and all her work is archival, using watercolor, print paper or canvas. Her abstract landscapes have been created to view singly, or in complementary groupings of two, three or four, based on their interrelations of form and color.
Maureen Renahan Krinsley received her undergraduate degree from Skidmore College in Art and her Master’s degree from Pratt Institute. Her work is in both private and corporate collections. Recently she was commissioned by The Stamford Hospital and The Tully Medical Center for their ICU waiting rooms and lobby. She has exhibited nationally and is an Artist Member and has been on the Board of Directors of The Silvermine Guild of Artists and The New York Society of Woman Artists.
