Shana R. Goetsch received her BFA in painting from the Milwaukee Institute of Art & Design, where she also holds a printmaking minor. A southeastern Wisconsin native, Shana has been involved in the arts since childhood, starting with dance as her first visual medium. She became more interested in painting in 1989, and after the death of her mother. Using her work as a vehicle for change and empowerment in herself and others, Goetsch often uses words and specific phrases to interject personal history, experience and meaning into her pieces. Many hand gathered and found objects are used as materials in her work, as well. Goetsch still sees painting as an important part of her process, ā€œI’m a painter, and anything else I can possibly get away with.ā€
