Norine Kevolic was born in Philadelphia, PA in 1952 and raised in Bucks County with her four sisters. As a child she watched her father, an artist/illustrator, while he painted religious icons on hollowed-out eggs, to be given to her grandparents at Easter. Much later, she recognized the important influence the Byzantine style had on her own work and understood some of the roots of her fascination with stylized interpretations of the human figure.

The creative environment the sisters shared in their youth was kept alive and well as each went her way. Norine’s self-directed path has been focused primarily on painting, drawing in silverpoint, and woodworking. In addition to studies in anatomy, painting, glassblowing, and woodworking at Bucks County Community College, she gravitated toward environments that would help her develop skills, which she would later carry over into her artwork, such as designing, lettering/carving signs, and gilding. Many years of work as a cabinetmaker’s assistant provided a further hands-on education in using tools, wood characteristics, paints and finishes, designing, frame-making, decorative painting on furniture, etc.

Norine has exhibited widely throughout the PA and NJ region: Woodmere Art Gallery in Philadelphia, Phillips Mill, New Century, and Golden Door Gallery in New Hope, PA and Artsbridge, Riverbank Arts, Atelier Gallery, and with TAWA in NJ. From these juried shows and galleries she has received a number of awards for painting and mixed media. In a 2-artist show entitled “Metalpoint Drawings” she exhibited portraits, skulls, seashells, gargoyles and landscapes that were drawn with a silver, copper, or gold stylus on panels that she prepared with a traditional Renaissance formula. In 2002, at a 2-artist show entitled “Traditions Old and New” (Atelier Gallery in Frenchtown, NJ) she exhibited a series of Renaissance-inspired portrait paintings and silverpoints, with frames of her own design. Her intricate wood mosaics were shown at Prallsville Mills in Stockton, NJ and “Works in Wood” in Lambertville, NJ – where she received the Greene and Greene Award. The winter 2002 edition of Bucks County Town & Country Living Magazine featured her mosaic work in its “Gallery Profile” section. In late 2003 “Quiet Places” (Atelier Gallery, Frenchtown, NJ) displayed Norine’s recent works, which explore the simple beauty of natural objects. In this particular series she designed the frames to be an integral part of the painting - wanting the image to “float” rather than be contained by a frame.

Norine resides in Solebury, PA where she has a studio and workshop. Her work is in many private collections throughout the United States.

I have a studio/workshop in New Hope, PA and have exhibited my silverpoint drawings, oils/acrylics, wood mosaics and mixed media (acrylic, pencil, gold leaf) in many galleries throughout the PA-NJ area.
