From Germany, Back explored her artistic abilities at an early age. Her family moved to NY, where she attended SVA after high school. A career in graphic/web design ensued, culminating in Back running her own Design Firm.
In a quest to discover her own voice rather than catering to clients, Back found herself craving the feeling of a paintbrush. Back tells visual stories inspired by experiences, current events and nature. A composition could be a figure conveying an emotion or moment, a geometrically infused landscape, or the beauty of an eye. They often include text, photographs and words.
