Karen J Revis is an artist based in New York City who is driven by process and materials. She is a printmaker using a variety of techniques including monotypes, lithographs, etchings, linoleum cuts, collagraphs and papermaking.  Her Karen J. Revis Studio portfolio comprises abstract works, vibrant with color and texture.  In 2017 she started Revisionary Prints, which was created to explore her experience growing up in an all black community in the 60’s and being black and existing in today's political climate.  Two of Revis’ prints were selected by Colossal Media as the first in their Represent: Black Arts mural project, with murals in NYC and LA. She was a recipient of the Robert Blackburn Workshop SIP Fellowship in 2018.  She has attended residencies at The Morgan Paper Conservatory, Cleveland,OH; BACAS, Teggiano Italy; Pyramid Atlantic, Silver Spring MD.; The Women’s Studio Workshop, Rosendale NY and Henry Street Settlement, NY, NY.  Her work is featured in The Art of Encaustic Painting: Contemporary Expression in the Ancient Medium by Joanne Mattera (Watson-Guptill Publications). She studied Fine Art at Pratt Institute in Brooklyn, NY. She is a board member of the Women’s Studio Workshop and continues to collaborate and exhibit her work widely.
