A fine artist and former art professor, Nance (Goren) Nadel has been reimagining existing materials into thought provoking mixed media works and collages for 30 years. As a Professor of Fine Art for 26 years at The Sage Colleges in Albany, NY, Nance encouraged and challenged her students technically and conceptually. At the same time, Nance continually created new artworks and exhibited her drawings and mixed media collages in numerous solo and group exhibitions at the regional and national level where she sold her work to many public and private collectors.
Since retiring from academia, Nance has been actively creating new artworks including collages, drawings, and mixed media paintings. Nance resides in Delray Beach, FL.
