Piazza Gallery Art & Framing in Mt.
Pleasant, SC, Offers Works by Jane Sirulnik-Snyder
The Piazza Gallery Art & Framing in Mt. Pleasant, SC, features
works by Jane Sirulnik-Snyder from Mar. 1 - 31, 2004.
Sirulnik-Snyder enjoys painting whimsical animals certain to inspire
a smile. Born in Springfield, MA, she showed an interest in art
at a young age. At six, she began her art studies at the Springfield
Museum. In high school, Sirulnik-Snyder was followed by groups
of children who enjoyed watching her draw. Invariably, they would
ask her to sketch their portraits in charcoal and pencil. "We
spent the summers at Crescent Beach in Connecticut, and there
was always a crowd around me. Naturally, as a teenager, I loved
the attention."
Sirulnik-Snyder is the daughter of a landscape watercolorist and
past president of the American Medical Art Association who supported
his daughter's dream to become an artist. She studied art at the
Fashion Institute of Technology in New York City and worked in
the garment industry for many years designing apparel. "I
was fortunate that my father not only gave me my talent, but also
the support to develop my talent. I have my love of painting because
he so loved to paint landscapes. He gave me his joy."
In 1997, Sirulnik-Snyder moved to Mt. Pleasant where she continues
to use acrylics and watercolor to depict the beauty of coastal
Carolina. "I enjoy doing portraits, but it is great fun to
take a beautiful bird like the egret and give it a bit of personality.
Animals can be humorous, too!"
