Gayane Avetisyan

Art has been my passion since I was little. I was born in Armenia, a country with a rich tradition of the arts. It is in this environment of a broad range of cultural and historical legacies that I spent my formative years. Growing up, I studied among well-known artists working and living in Armenia. Outside of school, I pursued numerous art media including painting, print making and pottery. By the time I graduated in 1994, I was teaching graphic arts and printmaking at an innovative and experimental school launched in Armenia at the time of its independence.
