BIO

Priscilla Birge, primarily a photo based artist, was born in New York City, raised in New England, and moved to Berkeley, California to continue her art education at the the San Francisco Art Institute (then the California School of Fine Art) and U.C. Berkeley where she earned an M.A. in painting. She received a B.A. in art history and painting from Brown University before studying briefly at the Corcoran School of Art in Washington, D.C. 

Many of her photo based images become abstracted in the creation  process and live in a mixed media, shallow space environment. She uses watercolor, graphite, oil pastel, collage, and assemblage, as well as traditional and non-traditional printmaking processes including digital.  Her work has been shown nationally and internationally and she has pieces in private and public collections.
