About Shana Levenson

A Short Bio
Shana Levenson is a representational painter from Albuquerque, NM. Her passion for the arts led her to pursue a BA in Fashion Design from The University of Texas, in Austin, and after the birth of her children in 2009 and 2010, an MFA in Fine Art Painting from the Academy of Art University, in San Francisco.
Shana’s work focuses on portraiture and the figure. Her inspiration comes from painting people that are important in her life, and her goal is to capture each person’s story in an honest and meaningful way. Shana draws inspiration from her own experiences and uses specific series as a way to illustrate chapters in her life. Her background in fashion has inspired her newest series of paintings of lace.
“I love the ACM panels that Artefex makes. They not only look professional, but using the ACM panel as my substrate allows me to get the fine details in the lace pieces I paint as well as to also allow my brushstrokes to describe form on skin tones without the texture of linen coming through. Artefex panels are also durable and lightweight for the longevity of the paintings I create.”

About Our Unprimed Panels
Artefex Unprimed ACM panel is the most versatile panel allowing the artist to prime the surface with any primer or mount a wide range of materials. The ACM panel is a professional support for all mediums made of two-sided aluminum composite material (ACM), consisting of two aluminum sheets laminated to both sides of a black polyethylene core. They offer a superior support for painting compared to wood panels because they have a very low response to environmental changes, such as relative humidity and temperature.
