Bio
Shirley Scheier is a lifelong printmaker and painter born in Kansas City. The terrain of Colorado, Kansas, and Missouri were her childhood surroundings to explore. During her young life, she engaged with environmental concerns by working for one of the first local and organic foods cooperatives in the midwest. Her early artwork was landscape painting and organic abstraction. Deeply influenced by the feminist art of the 1970s, her direction shifted to narrative drawing, collage, and printmaking. University of Washington-Seattle Painting, Printmaking, and Drawing Division’s national search brought Shirley from the mid-west for a tenure track faculty position in 1986. Shirley’s printmaking and artist-hand-made books were the medium to express her narrative work. As her printmaking advanced into sequential progressive printmaking, it informed the organic abstract landscape work of the past twenty years. Today she has her studio on the Olympic Peninsula and lives with the love of her life.
