Bio:

Biography Ny Wetmore is an artist with over 20 years experience in studio art. She has a BFA in Fiber from the Kansas City Art Institute and an MA in Education from University of Central Missouri; she believes making art at any age helps a person learn to think expressively and creatively, to problem solve more effectively and to find a way to express and enliven their soul. She has won national accolades for her artistic accomplishments. She also has a BS degree in Business Management from SNU and regularly coaches artists just beginning their studio careers on effective practices of studio management so success is possible. Art and teaching are her two greatest loves besides her 14 year old daughter, of course. Artist Statement Each of us is the sum of our parts, no one piece should be taken individually. We are a mosaic of our past, our present and our future. Fiber processes lend themselves to the consideration of each tiny piece, each tiny stitch, each tiny stroke, each button and what they can mean to the whole. Aristotle described so passionately that the whole of our parts is much greater than the individual sum. Together we are more. My pieces are meant to inspire one to think of this idea and to encourage joy in remembering those pieces of ourselves whether success or failure that brings us to where we are today. Carpe each diem!
