About Me

Kent Studio

Hi, I'm Marijane Kent, the creator of the work on this website. I was born and raised near Bozeman, Montana. I have been working in various mediums since high school. Early on, I enjoyed sketching with pencil and charcoal. Later, I started painting with watercolors. I studied art and graphic design at West Texas A&M University in Canyon, Texas. I discovered a love for printmaking there and have been making prints ever since. 
I love working on paper and I think that that is what draws me to the different mediums I work with. What I love about printmaking is that the results are often unexpected. Pulling a print off of the plate for the first time is always exciting. I also love to combine different types of prints, such as printing etchings over monoprints or lithographs on top of etchings. I try to keep learning new processes and lately have been using solar plates to create etchings from drawings and photos. 
I currently live and work in Boulder, Montana.
