Meet the Artist

Wendy Seskind was born in Southern California and divides her time between Todos Santos and Santa Barbara. Her love of paint, textiles, paper, leather and clay have continually informed and balanced her curious spirit into form, while her colors and textures appear and mutate in silent marks and poetic intensity. She embraces the elements of chance and the beauty of uncertainty.

One of her favorite quotes by Michael Ondaatje is “We die containing a richness of lovers and tribes, tastes we have swallowed, bodies we have plunged into and swum up as if rivers of wisdom, characters we have climbed into as if trees, fears we have hidden in as if caves.” 

Wendy’s formal painting studies were at the Slade School in London. You can view her work on Instagram  @wendy_seskind
