About the Artist
(1956)

From the age of 11, Raye studied figure drawing and abstract painting at the Art Students League of NY, and was steeped in the teachings of protégés of Ash Can and WPA Social Realism, a thread evident in her oeuvre.
Raye has a BA in Ceramics and an MFA in Painting, and taught perspective drawing, color theory, artistic anatomy, and painting for over 35 years (Smithsonian, the University of Maryland, and Walter Reed Army Medical Center). Concurrently, she worked as a set designer and painter in the DC opera and theater scene.
