Boldly painted. Joyfully feminist.

Hi! I’m Gwenn Seemel.

I make brightly colored paintings that are both playful and intense, and I release all my work directly into the public domain, free for use by anybody for any reason. Because of that unusual choice, I was invited to give a TEDx talk in Switzerland. My art has appeared in Newsweek as well as on the cover of an Oxford University Press book. I live in Lambertville, New Jersey.

These days, I’m working on a project I’ve tentatively titled Triggering History. It will include paintings like this one of James Baldwin, but, at the moment, I’m focused on finding an institutional partner who could help me turn this series into a collaboration. Please feel free to share my project proposal with any institutional connections you may have who you think might be interested!

For ten years now, you’ve made me the artist I am.

Thank you to every one of my protectors! If you’d like to sign up to roar your enthusiasm, go to Patreon.
