Ivy Monsees
I’m originally from Long Island, NY and moved to Lakeland in 1984 at which
time I started painting in oils, taking classes with California artist Areta
Scharper and Lakeland artist Mary Conn. I have since expanded to include
acrylics and watercolors.
For several years I have been teaching classes for residents where I live and at
Imperial Art Gallery which has now merged with j. rowan galleries inc.. I have
been a member of My Gallery in Winter Haven for many years and started
doing butterflies when the gallery was associated with Cypress Gardens.
I have been award the Judges Award ribbon at Bloomin Arts Show, Award of
Excellence at Wings and Strings show, Award of Merit at the Jacaranda Fine
Arts Festival, and an award at Arts on the Park for my work, “WOW”. I have
also been selected to show work at the Peggy Brown Building in 2006 and in
2008.
My work has been accepted in jurried shows with LAG, AOP, Ridge Art,
Maitland, Brandon, Crystal River, Universal, Orlando and I am represented in
England.
