2021 FINALISTIT - ÄÄNESTÄ ja VOITA

Connie McCoy graduated with a BA degree from the College of Design, Art, Architecture and Planning at the University of Cincinnati. I've been a professional graphic designer for almost 50 years. I started painting in oils and sculpting in clay because art was my passion. My creative journey has led me from representational art to abstraction. In abstract form I feel bolder and more expressive. I love color and what lighting does to color. I enjoy working with a palette knife because of the wonderful textures you can achieve. I feel my designs are very applicable to carpets in that they create an artistic environment.
