ulcie Dee, a native New
Yorker excelled as an art major at Fiorello La Guardia H.S. of Music and
the Arts.
Her passion for drawing escalated when she won 1st prize for the
1971 NYC Anti-Drug Abuse poster contest that inspired her to pursue the
arts as her life career.
Dee received
her MFA from The Academy of Art University, SF(AAA) and
holds a BFA Cum Laude from The University of the Philippines
(UP).
During her studies at UP, she traveled extensively
throughout Southeast Asia falling in love with snorkeling in the Philippines. She
discovered the unique underwater world of their coral reefs. Mesmerized by
the beauty she intimately experienced the incredible color range of their
marine life.
Her “Marine Dreams” series premiered at the Hiraya Gallery in
Manila capturing her joyful discovery of this rapidly eroding Philippine
eco-treasure.
International
reviews in popular magazines such as ‘Asiaweek’,
‘Taipan’, ‘Filipinas’ and
‘Transpacific’ featured Dee's efforts to alert the public to the
conservation of its delicate coral reefs
Her work is a Zen fusion of East and West. Each painting
pulsates with rich, vibrant, tropical colors painted with clarity,
precision and with a free-flowing sense of subject, shade and color. Just as
entrancing as her seascapes are her enigmatic paintings of lovely, demure
yet sensuous Geishas revealing the erotic sensuality of the female body.
|
Connoisseurs and lovers of
nature from 14 countries, including the United States, Philippines,
Australia, Japan, Singapore, Germany, France, and Bermuda have purchased
her sensuous paintings for their private collections.
“The Shunga Series” reveals
the Geisha’s secret desire for eternal sexual and spiritual love with her
Samurai lover”

Manila (www.hiraya.com). Dulcie authored/illustrated “ABC Coral
Reef” to educate

Shunga” Geisha series was exhibited at the
