Valerie Pensworth grew up in the suburbs just outside Atlanta, Ga. She attended Georgia State University where she pursued Psychology. The complexities of people and how they form identity always intrigued her, but something in that field lacked her complete attention. She was often found making collages with found objects which caught the eye of some friends who told her to pursue art.
Towards the end of her of college years, she started taking art classes. For the first time she was ambitious about projects and put all of her energy into her assignments. She couldn't fathom spending any more time in college, so she ended up with a BA Psychology and a minor in Studio Arts. However, her new found passion has reinforced and changed her intentions in a career. She now wants to focus everything on her art and the transformations that evolve as she continues to produce work.
P.S. She's just trying to figure it out, like the rest of us.

Five days in the car and close to 3,000 miles later we have arrived in Portland, Oregon. I love it here and look forward to many years in the Pacific Northwest.
