Born in Dallas, Texas in 1952, Eva Rose Goetz's summers were spent with her dad and her brother Jack, traveling long flat Texas roads and visiting cotton gins. Her love of art was fostered along these roads. The family's winter vacations were spent near the border town of Brownsville. Goetz would cross into Mexico where her senses were charmed. Goetz's work is born from the riches of Latin America. Her love of South America--its people, its language, its food, the color--stems from these early beginnings. Today, Goetz travels to Peru for inspiration whenever she can, balancing time between art-making, PachaWorks, and motherhood.
Goetz received a BFA from University of Texas in Austin, and a MS in Education from Bank Street College in New York where she was also active in the East Village Art Movement. Goetz has exhibited throughout the United States.
Art is an extension and representation of what I am contemplating at the moment. I work from the inside out, expressing ideas, feelings, motivations, and concepts I am playing with. Sometimes my paintings reflect the groans, sadness, and sighs of healing a past love, or perhaps the joy of exploring the inner workings of a personal universe. I use people, animals, and elements of landscape, symbolically or playfully, as totems in my work. Each piece tells a tale. My color comes from deserts, oceans, mountains, joy, and love. My art is a celebration of spirit. A celebration of life.
