BIO
Zoya Scholis grew up in Monterey, Ca. She studied Drawing, Painting and Art history with Mel Ramos, Enrique Chagoya and Dr. Mark Levy at CSUEB, graduating with honors in 1993.  After over a decade of teaching full-time, she now dedicates herself to making, showing and selling art, using art as a modality for personal growth in her Life coaching practice and leading Art for Personal Growth Workshops. Her teaching style includes movement, improv games and music to enhance learning and creative inspiration. Currently, she resides in Seaside, CA. 
​
S T A T E M E N T
Primarily a process painter, most of Zoya's work feature abstract forms from nature–figures, birds, leaves, petals, fruit.  Among her influences are painters Joan Savo, Matisse, Chagall, conceptual artist Taryn Simon and performance artist Valie Export. For Scholis, art making is an exploration of psyche and an experiment with the Divine.
