Arlene Weinstock earned a BFA degree from Boston University. She continued her education at the Corcoran Museum School where she studied website development. She earned a Signature (CPSA), Experimental Signature (CPX), and Five Year Merit recognition for her artwork from the Colored Pencil Society of America (CPSA). Weinstock’s "Recyclables" is about finding beauty in materials others discard. She creates paper from shredded office documents. As she builds the paper with layers of wet pulp, she sculpts the surface. When dry, she paints intense colors to enhance the forms and textures. Working in conversation with the art, she follows the lead of what emerges. She looks for ideas in the lights and shadows. Weinstock often feels an idea and helps these phantoms take form. The process of creating art is giving life to ideas. Recycling paper is renewal. This colorful abstract art series uplifts the spirit. It speaks to the intention of second chances. Through it, she sees possibilities.
