My name is Peggy Banks and i am a working professional mixed media artist. I have been, showing and creating my art for over 35 years. It has changed and evolved over time but the constant medium is handmade paper. One body of work is called Outside the Box .I fuse handmade paper with hand dyed silk and mount it on copper which i patina. I also have another body of work that is housed under plexi glass. This is called my Euro series. Both bodies of art are non objective or abstract and are influenced by nature, music and spirituality. I have exhibited my work in many museums, galleries and in art festivals around the country winning numerous awards over the years. I have also been included in several Art in Public Places Collections. My work has been collected by the Daytona International Airport , The Court House in Deland Florida, Bert Fish Medical Center, New Smyrna Beach Florida, The New Smyrna Beach Library, Port orange City Library Port Orange Fl., Lincoln Center and The White House. I have shown in the American Craft Museum in Baltimore and Atlanta, Lincoln Center, Ann Arbor Michigan State Street Arts Festival, Disney Festival of the Masters, The Boca Museum Show, The Winter Park Sidewalk Arts festival, among others and...
