Boldly painted. Joyfully feminist.
Hi! I’m Gwenn Seemel.
I make brightly colored paintings that are both playful and intense, and I release all my work directly into the public domain, free for use by anybody for any reason. Because of that unusual choice, I was invited to give a TEDx talk in Switzerland. My art has appeared in Newsweek as well as on the cover of an Oxford University Press book. I live in Lambertville, New Jersey.
Celebrate science with the 13th anniversary edition of my most popular book, Crime Against Nature!
This biology book is fiercely feminist and full of facts about all the ways we’ve misunderstood what actually goes on in the natural world when it comes to gender and sex.
You can download a free PDF of Crime Against Nature or invite these beautifully illustrated examples of our planet’s true diversity to take up space in the real world by purchasing a print copy.
Take care of your mental health with Everything’s Fine.
The project started out as a series of paintings, and it’s now a free high school art lesson plan as well as a coloring book that’s designed to help you embrace your complexity with creativity and kindness.
