Renee Bott

Renee Bott is an American artist whose works are based on the intricate lines found in both etchings and engravings from the 15th-17th centuries. She examines stories, images, text, and handwriting from the past as a way of understanding "how we got here today". Bott collects her source materials from museums, antique print dealers, and private collections. She photographs the prints and uses digital programs to modify the images, which serve as general outlines for her unique compositions.
