A Tear in Time

 
A quote from Ingrid Croce in handwritten lettering reading, never believe a prediction that doesn't empower you
 
 
MEET INGRID

“Ingrid Croce’s artwork revels in the richness of life intensely lived.”

 
 
MEMORY AS MUSE

The sweetness in the bitter fruit, music pouring from a moving-down-the-highway van, a hummingbird determined to survive: these memories are my muses. With jazz flooding my San Diego studio, I create mixed media art that maps seventy-two years of surviving & thriving. In my head, it’s all layered — and it all exists at the same time.

 

 

 

AN AMERICAN FOLK ICON

“INGRID’S ART COMMUNICATES WHAT’S IN OUR MIND’S EYE, WITH A VOICE THAT CANNOT BE HEARD - ONLY SEEN.”
