Utilizing transparent plastics as a ground, she experiments with natural and chemical processes, such as rust and oxidation, to create luminous works that emanate a meditative pulse. An outgrowth from her original work as an abstract painter, McGee’s work is both architectural and yet ephemeral. She has worked in historic buildings as a conservation painter, and as a scenic painter for a variety of films and sets. She has lived in many parts of the United States, having migrated from Cincinnati to Los Angeles, New York, and finally, Nashville.
