LISBETH FIRMIN

Lisbeth Firmin is a contemporary American painter and printmaker whose fine art straddles the line between realism and abstraction. She has been painting from an early age and in the 1970’s studied with printmaker Seong Moy, and painters Philip Malicoat, Victor Candell, and Leo Manso in Provincetown, MA. Her artwork explores feelings of solitude and loneliness within an urban city environment.

Firmin has been the recipient of many grants and fellowships, including a Pollock-Krasner Foundation Grant and a New York Foundation for the Arts Fellowship for Printmaking.

She teaches painting/printmaking at the University of North Carolina School of the Arts, Winston Salem, NC and at the Truro Center for the Arts, Castle Hill, Cape Cod, MA.

Her work has been seen in hundreds of group and solo gallery shows worldwide and is in many private and public collections as well as with corporations.
