Confidence Through Sacred Symmetry: Finding Freedom in Geometric Art

First and foremost an educator, Clarissa’s passion is introducing beginner artists to the truly accessible art of geometry. She delights in sharing her ideas, materials, and techniques with others, and her background in mathematics teaching enables her to demonstrate and explain difficult concepts simply and clearly. In her own artmaking she enjoys exploring the interplay between the precision of human-made geometry and the more organic and chaotic geometries and symmetries found in nature. She often includes paper stitching in her work, where it complements and enhances the geometry of her mixed media pieces.
