Artist Biography

Tabby Ivy is a painter living in Bigfork, Montana. She describes her work as “Contemporary expressions of nature’s beauty”. Her paintings often begin when a mood, scene or thought breaks through the everyday to spark an idea or call to creative action. She relies on intuitive spontaneity, curiosity and risk taking to guide her through the painting process. Her work is not a literal depiction of a landscape, scene or subject. She purposely strives for her paintings to be evocative and engaging while leaving a bit of mystery and interpretation for the viewer.

Most recently she has been in collaboration with Damon Falke, a US born writer and poet now living in the far north of Norway. Their exhibition, Between Artists, Life in Paintings and Prose, opened in June at the Hockaday Museum of Art in Kalispell, Montana. The exhibition runs June 17 – August 20, 2022. FoR Fine Art Gallery Whitefish is representing available work from the exhibition. (forfineart.com)
