ARTIST IN RESIDENCE JULY 2019
LMSTUDIO IN HYERES, FRANCE
Artist residencies are all about experimentation and allowing the new environment to organically find itself into one's work. The piece at left was initially inspired by the colors of the French flag - prominently displayed in anticipation of Bastille Day, France's Independence Day.
I've been working on watercolor, mixed media and getting itchy to paint! Check out my blog for more about my experience and my INSTAGRAM @liliannemilgrom.

2019: FRANCE HERE I COME - AGAIN
You can take the girl out of France, but you can't take the French out of the girl! Two opportunities will be drawing me back to France this year - an artist residency in Hyeres on the Cote d'Azur (!) for the month of July (SEE DETAILS ABOVE) and participation in an exhibition at the magnificent Benedictine abbey (pictured left) in Lehon in September. Details to come.

The Clay Studio, a leading light in the ceramic arts, features an annual exhibition of small ceramic works no larger than 4" x 4". The show showcases selected ceramic artists in a variety of styles.

SPEEDBALL ART PRIZE JAN 2019 : THE BIG PICTURE COLLECTIVE
I uploaded an image of one of my works onto The Big Picture Collective because I believe in their mission - bringing together thousands of artists from all around the world to create a humongous mosaic picture that reflects our multi-cultural world. It is totally cool - check out where my work fits in the Big Picture here. I thought I had done my bit but then I received word that my image, Self Portrait with a Goat (left), was selected out of hundreds of entries for the Speedball Art Prize!

ESPRIT DE FRANCE Exhibition and workshop
Western Wyoming Community College Gallery OCT - NOV 2018
Western Wyoming Community College exhibited my French Girls mixed media series in a two-woman show with collage artist, Lili Francuz.
It was a pleasure to teach a 3-day intensive workshop on collage technique in conjunction with the show. Collage is one of the most democratic of mediums requiring at its very basic, a pair of scissors, glue, and found scraps of paper. Picasso and Braque were the first artists to use pre- existing materials in their art.

MILGROM ARTICLE ON MORANDI/DE WAAL
Ceramics Monthly Magazine, June Quarterly edition 2018
I was fortunate enough to experience a stunning exhibition at Stockholm's Artipelag Museum last year: 'Morandi/Edmund de Waal'. Everything about this exhibition was designed to inspire stillness, encourage contemplation, and amplify the sounds of silence. To experience the Morandi/Edmund de Waal exhibition was to divorce oneself from the chaos of the modern world.
My featured review of this exhibition has been published in Ceramics Monthly, the leading magazine on the ceramic arts. Read the article here.

spotlight on new works
I am constantly creating in the studio, either focusing on a body of work destined for exhibition, experimenting with new techniques, or simply creating work inspired by current events or personal experience. I want to welcome you into my studio by sharing new works on a rotating basis.
This month's spotlight features a piece from a series of mixed media (mono print using photo transfer, multiple gelli prints). See more works like these here. I will be working on developing this new technique during my artist residency in France in July.
Comments or inquiries are always welcome through the contact form.
