Lenore Gimpert
Lenore's home and studio are centered in the downtown area of Birmingham, Michigan. She received her BFA at the College for Creative Studies in Detroit, Michigan. She also obtains a MA and MFA from Wayne State University in Detroit. Her award-winning work can be found in many private and public collections internationally.
Lenore has a strong love of history, particularly the Greek Hellenistic, Baroque and Rococo periods. The romance of these periods is portrayed in her paintings and drawings as we view the old and classical through her contemporary eye. She uses dripping techniques, smearing, splattering and pouring paint on paper and canvas. The backgrounds typically start with a black surface and progress to a bright white, or the brightest of color.
