About
Kevin Pomerleau has been involved in printmaking since 2010 when he first stepped into a printmaking studio as an undergraduate at Holyoke Community College. After acquiring a BFA in Printmaking from the University of Massachusetts Amherst, Kevin became involved at Zea Mays Printmaking in Florence Massachusetts. First as an intern, then studio monitor, and eventually teacher focusing primarily on alternative etching processes.
Kevin’s work is based in etching, has been featured at the Editions/Artists Book fair, and has been included in many prestigious exhibitions and public and private collections. Previously Kevin has taught at the Ross School in Easthampton, NY and currently works as the Visual Arts Technician Specialist at Smith College supporting the analog printmaking and photography studios.
