In 1982, after receiving a BFA in painting from the University of Washington, she co- founded Ink on Paper and worked under the direction of master lithographer Charles E. Matson. After learning a great deal about lithography, her interest and passion became focused on intaglio and relief printing. In 1996, she founded Sidereal Fine Art Press (SFAP), which she continues to operate today in Tukwila, Washington. SFAP has been involved in the production of many fine original intaglio and relief prints using traditional methods of printmaking. In 1998 she met and worked for Marcia Bartholme, master printer at Beta Press in Seattle. That experience has continued to inspire and inform her understanding of printmaking: She has worked closely with many fine Northwest artists, sharing and trading information, learning, teaching and experimenting in one of the more intimate forms of artistic collaboration. This ongoing collaborative work has given her a rich and diverse collection of experience and knowledge which she shares freely with other artists. Throughout her printing career, she has continued to pursue her own artistic ideas by making prints, paintings and small constructions. Her work has been included in many shows in the Northwest as well as in Japan and China and is available for viewing and purchase through SFAP. 11 Sheila Coppola Lives and works in Tukwila, Washington EDUCATION Crown Point Press summer workshop, San Francisco, CA Skowhegan School of Painting & Sculpture, Skowhegan, ME BFA in Painting, University of Washington, Seattle, WA Portland Museum Art School, Portland, OR Portland State University, Portland, OR Study abroad in London, England and Avignon, France EXHIBITIONS Road Trip, Juried Exhibition, Hickory Museum of Art, Hickory, North Carolina, 2013 Coca Collision, Past, Present and Future Members Show, 2013, Coca.

These Cartoons can be disastrous, humorous, sad or cautionary, but always gently political. The compositions are created by collecting and distilling details and experiences around me into symbols that 1 layer, repeat and rearrange into a kind of "situational still life ". As a student I studied with Jacob Laurence, Michael Spafford, Richard Bosman and George McNeil, all great storytellers, who all influenced my work. Jacob Laurence and George McNeil were particularly instrumental in showing me how to utilize color in a vibrant and complex manner while Michael Spafford and Richard Bosman electrified my interest in printmaking and the "essential" mark. My printmaking practice has contributed to a focus on spontaneous mark making, texture, shape and process. I graduated with a BFA in painting that included an emphasis on printmaking and my current work combines both disciplines. Subjects of Focus Our endangered environment: Water, air, flora, fauna + space Overpopulation Global warming + natural disasters Misuse of natural resources Species extinction Our human relationships: Gender inequality Gender connections + attractions Family units and hierarchies Diversity inequality + Prejudice 14 (1) City of Tukwila RECEIVED JAN 212016 Tukwila City Hall Email: Bo ardsComms0tukwilawa.-gov 6200 Southeenter Blvd Website: www.tukwilawa.-gov Tukwila, WA 98188 Phone: (206) 433-1800 Fax (206) 433-1833 Application for Appointment BOARDS AND COMMISSIONS Please complete the ENTIRE application form.
