After obtaining her BFA in Graphic Design at the School of Visual Arts, Ms. Caplan worked in the Art Department at some of the top publishing houses in New York City designing a vast and varied number of book covers.

At a young age, she developed a passion for the art of collage. Today her  work is a reflection of that passion, melded with the graphic arts skills she honed during her tenure in publishing. Her education and work experience as a graphic designer have come together on the canvas in the form of Collage Portraiture.

The portraits bring life to photographic history, each piece with its own narrative; trying to the tell the story of the person behind the image. It can represent a link to a family’s past and provide a visual legacy for its future.
