Some history on the artist:
Like a group of more-celebrated (and mostly male) local painters who were roughly her contemporaries, Terry Parmalee has an affinity for clean, bright colors. She’s not known, however, for pouring, staining or spattering pigment. The pictures in “Wave Songs: Terry Parmalee’s Works of the Eighties” at Pazo Fine Art feature shapes that are fluid and curving, yet always hard-edged. The artist, a longtime Washingtonian who is 91 (at the time this story was written), has been most active as a printmaker.
After a decade overseas that included printmaking studies in Japan, Parmalee settled in the Washington area in the mid-1960s. She earned a master’s in painting at American University and embarked on a teaching career. Some of her prints are representational, but these paintings are abstract. Their tightly arrayed ripples and ovals can be read as forms from nature, but rarely as specific objects.
