A native of Austin, Hillary McMahan earned an M.F.A. in painting and drawing from Louisiana State University in 2002. She has been an adjunct faculty member at the University of Louisiana in Lafayette, and has been awarded residencies at Vermont Studio Center and Studios Midwest. Her work was recently included in New Texas Talent at Dallas’s Craighead-Green Gallery. Lately I have been working on drawings that involve animals but are intended to suggest human desire and dilemmas. The drawings often represent emotional states that I have experienced or situations I have felt myself to be in. They are intended to be troubling but not without wit. I hope that a viewer may experience some amusement and/or relief through the recognition of his or her own anxieties and discomforts.
