Silvia sees art as
a way of life
“It’s neat to see your work
in a show. The exposure is
good,” Maruschka Silvia-Aberg
said Tuesday at the closing of
the art show she and her hus
band, Jeff, presented in the last
week.
“The show is an example
of our exploring,” said Jeff
Silvia. “I see the flaws. The
flaws are blatently obvious to
me. I also see the potential and
the new ideas,” he said.
The puppet Jeff designed
under commercial arts instruc
tor Jack Adams, was done as a
study on pointalistic techni
ques. “Jack was an encourage
ment for me,” said Silvia of his
painting done with dots.
“When you’re standing away
from it, the color will blend
together.”
It was written in a previous
issue of The Print that Silvia
used photos in his self-portrait.
Silvia used only mirrors and no
photos were used. “I couldn’t
use photos because being
human, I change from day to
day,” Jeff said.
Maruschka had always an
interest in drawing. “I drew
horses for five years of my life,”
she said. Some of her art in
terests are in water colors,
drawings and ceramics. “1 want
to become a potter or teach
pottery,” she said. Maruschka
discovered working with clay at
the College.
“Our art represents us.
Each piece has a piece of us.
This is not our hobby; this is
our life,” he concluded.
