Biography
Born: 1970 New Jersey, USA Tara Good lived across the United States and in the Dominican Republic, currently living in Sea Isle City, NJ. At the age of 15, Good won the Congressional Award for a photo-realistic drawing that was featured in the United States Capitol Building for one year. She has studied at Parson's in NYC, The California College of the Arts and Crafts in Oakland, Ca and at Altos De Chavon in the Dominican Republic. Good was one of The Top Five to Collect in Savannah, Ga. and continued to win numerous awards for her work when she lived down South. After she moved back to New Jersey, her work continued to be in several TV shows & movies, serious health issues plagued Good. Still, this artist continues to paint on how mankind has impacted nature's environment with or without the human figure. Using acrylic, mica, watercolors, gouache, ink, and century old bits of text & images, Good focuses her lens on what is "ugly beautiful" in our ever changing modern world by utilizing her camera, computer, and printing stencils that are then hand cut, by the artist, and finally incorporates into so many paintings. As of 2021, Good's work can be seen throughout the South New Jersey Shore; in numerous restaurants, stores, and where Good concentrates on local art pop ups for other local & tri-state artists. She has expanded her vocabulary by using an ancient way of painting (with encaustic wax) and continues to be interested with a variety of surfaces, mediums, & techniques.
 
Statement
After children, battling leukemia, and living with crippling health issues, I still create and explore new mediums. I say "new," but encaustic wax has been around since, approximately, the 5th century. The dichotomy of the ever changing environment, frozen in wax, to last forever. I want to haunt the viewer, with memories of summers long gone bye, and the viewer to create their own story for each piece. Some pieces are a mirror to the viewer's experience, a token that they were there and some collections are experimental (2015-2019) with learning all over again. I'm striving to help locate space for artist, at all levels, to get eyes on their work and to give back to the area with an artistic vision.
