Past Artists
Nancy Bien
Painter
My name is Nancy Bien. I am a California artist and a cello player.
My life as a painter began in music. For all of my adult life, I’ve made a living as a cellist — working my way through college to an MA in performance, followed by a few years playing in a symphony on the east coast, finally coming home to California. I have been an active freelance musician in the San Francisco Bay Area for many years.

Dani Torvik
Painter

lived-in environments, impressions of architecture, and references to her own flesh and body. Architectural forms represent her need for structure and balance, and her personal search
for social, geographical, and cultural belonging.
