A Colorado native, Feder paints abstractions of nature and architecture. The tension between her materials and her spiritual influences charge the work while resisting the typical sentimentality of such studies. Seeing her daughter's devotion to painting as a child, Feder’s mother arranged for her to begin private lessons which led to her studies with Colorado artists Ed Marecak and Mark Zamantakis at a time in her life where their influences not only were deeply rooted but have manifested into her own style.
A master colorist, Feder recalls, “I remember a day in Denver as a child, walking across a park in the early morning when the colors were at their saturated peak. I realized at that moment, with a force that shuddered through my body, that no one would ever see the world exactly as I saw it. The tremendous thrill and loneliness of that knowledge has remained throughout my life.” To this day as she applies paint and scrapes it away from her substrate, Feder remains true to that epiphanic day as a child.
Her work has evolved from decades of technical experience as a set designer, muralist, and studio artist. Feder’s commissions include murals and paintings for dozens of private and public collectors both nationally and internationally.
