Fain Hancock:
Fain Hancock is originally from Fort Worth, Texas. She has been in the Bay Area 15 years. Her paintings explore issues surrounding the idea of being female and examine some of the possibilities that being ladylike might offer: beauty, femininity, ripeness and especially the aspect of visual appeal. Her paintings are emotional landscapes and a record of thoughts forming. Often, the titles are quotes from her mother, an actress who abandoned her career to marry, and other women relatives who, above all else, encouraged her to be ladylike.
Fain received her BFA and MFA from California College of the Arts in Oakland, California and currently teaches art at Napa Valley College. She is represented by Hang Gallery in San Francisco and Greenwood Chebithes Gallery in Laguna Beach, California.
