Nancy M Gonzalez abstract art 

Nancy M Gonzalez Bio...
       I have been drawing ever since I can remember. I have no formal art education. My art has developed through its own evolution during the course of my life. Like anyone else, I enjoy the process of expressing my thoughts and feelings through this medium. Today, more than ever, my thoughts and feelings have blossomed into many new paintings.

    I feel very fortunate to be able to do this. Initially, painting for me was something very private. Today, I enjoy the sharing aspect of art between people. I am very proud to be called and
"artist", and I embrace and appreciate the opportunity to share my bouquet with you.

    I was born in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic to Hilda and Jose Gonzalez. I have a brother and 2 sisters.
My family moved to NYC from Santo Domingo, when I was 16 years old. Right after high school.
At age 17 opened my first business with a partner in Yonkers NY, a bridal & party supplies. Which was a great outlet for my creativity at the time.

   I met the father of my children at age of 22,
we married and moved to Philadelphia, were he was raised.
After 13 years and 3 beautiful children, we divorced.

I started my life over and set new goals for myself and reached for my old dreams again. Went back to school, to get my Associated Degree in Business at PIT( Media PA)and started the process to work in Law enforcement.Becoming a Philadelphia Police Officer .I Started Painting again, but this time in oils.

I was  delighted to find out that I am the first artist  from the Dominican Republic here in Philadelphia PA at the time .Many followed.
I had my first exhibit at Raices Culturales Latinoamericanas,
with the helped from a special lady, Veronica Perez the executive director of Raices at 5th st. and Somerset.

I would describe my work as colorful abstract, bringing out many things like memories  and my enjoyment of music  as I create.
I want my work to be enjoyed by everyone, taking my paintings around the US and all over the world.

My art for your imagination
